From Ms. Nichols, "Pre-K had an exciting morning with our Gingerbread Man! He escaped our cookie sheet and led us on a hunt around the classroom! We weren't quick enough to catch him, but he did leave us some yummy treats, a stuffy and a new book to read!
EC and Pre-K also had a fun afternoon of gingerbread house making! It was an extra sweet day for some super sweet kiddos! "
