Mrs. Robinson's kindergarteners are working hard to fundraise for the Brave Fun Run. They have already crushed their first fundraising goal of $350 and were able to bring their favorite stuffed animal to school for the day. But here's the really exciting part — they're just $5 away from unlocking a dance party! 💃🕺Every dollar counts, and with just a tiny bit more support, we could be spinning and grooving in no time.

Miss Gallagher's class transformed into apple scientists, artists, and taste-testers all rolled into one. The kids got wonderfully messy creating apple volcanos 🌋, exploring all sorts of tasty toppings to pair with crispy apple slices 🎨, and using apples as paint brushes to create the most delightful "apple trees". Then we finished with apple pie in a cup.
