All incoming kindergarten families are invited for a practice bus ride on Thursday, August 29th. Be at the bus stop one hour after the typically scheduled pick-up time, and kindergarten students (along with an adult) will get a ride to Saccarappa! Once at school, you will be able to visit the classrooms and ask any additional questions you may have. After a brief visit, the buses will then take everyone home. Hope to see you there!

Special delivery! Saccarappa's Cheer Club received a large box of pom-poms today from the Dallas Cowboy Cheerleaders! Mrs. Cammack reached out to a few professional cheer teams to see about getting Pom-poms donated and the Cowboys were quick to support. There are a few more Dallas fans in New England tonight! Also, thank you to everyone who donated towards the cheer team's t-shirts. They are excited to show off their new gear and routine at the upcoming end of year BBQ!
