Can you believe January is already gone? It feels like we haven't even had a winter yet (hopefully we don't get four feet of snow in April to pay for this nice weather!). We have a busy month coming up with a Valentine's Day Party, the Shirley Hills Read-A-Thon, and conferences. In Kindergarten, we're ready for the new month and we're ready to keep working hard, reading more, and having fun with all of our friends!
