Check out this video of the Boloria Meadows Nature Preserve in Bull Valley. Dennis Dreher, the site steward, talks about the kindergarten trips to the site in the past. Hopefully we can go this spring. https://t.co/zMnaXHYD7A Visit it today! https://t.co/n8kEXDdkff

All-day Kindergarten lets us take the time to read our new learning center books on the "bus". #kindercrew #enjoytheview #viewourstory @VV_Voyagers

Lot of learning in Kindergarten! Reading a story with @amandacohn9, Science puppet show about sharing habitats, and a pretend trip to the apple orchard. #kindercrew #enjoytheview #viewourstory

Mrs. Sharp, AP, wows the Kinders with a reading of "The Little Red Pen" by J. Stevens and Susan Crummel. The Little Red Pen taught us about cooperation. #kindercrew #enjoytheview #viewourstory

Second batch of gumbo, recipe courtesy of 2017 trip to New Orleans School of Cooking. My notes were messed up, roux not quite dark enough. Should be ok 😀. Bette's first roux! Maybe some homemade pralines for dessert! #nola #neworleansschoolofcooking
