It is officially cold weather! Remember to send your little ones with hats, mittens, scarves, and bog coats! It is helpful to send mittens over gloves. This allows the students to be independent with dressing. Also with the cold weather it takes time to get coats and accessories on, so if you could let me know if students are going to aftercare, that would be great! Thank you!
