Spring has arrived and all of the children cannot wait to finally  get outside any chance they get.  The older grades cannot get enough of  the game of "Knockout", while the younger grades are itching to play  "Hide and Seek" outside on the playground.

The children will  be making various spring and summer arts and crafts projects in the upcoming  months, and look to add to our ever growing art board.

Our 2 vs. 2  Basketball League has begun the playoffs and it is shaping up to be a very  competitive championship run.  After basketball, the children will be  participating in Olympic events and be competing against all grades.

It should be a  very exciting couple months ahead of us and we cannot wait!

At School's Out Elsmere it has been an incredible year. We have made so many memories together and I will never
forget any of them I hope that all of the children have enjoyed this year as much as I have.

I hope that everyone has an incredible summer and to all of the fifth graders who are moving on Congratulations and Good Luck. You will be missed next year and we wish you the
best of luck in Middle School. I hope that you all come back and visit next year!

Happy Spring!

The warm weather is finally here and we have been taking  advantage of it! We have been enjoying whiffle ball, kickball, tennis, and  soccer games outside. We look forward to making spring crafts like tissue paper  flowers, butterfly crayon melts, and sun catchers to fill our parent board  with Our pet board is filling up and the children love sharing  photos of their furry friends with everyone.

We are excited for lots of outdoor  activities and ending the year on a great note!

Happy Spring!

Over the next few weeks we will be focusing our attention on re-doing our boards to celebrate spring!   We will be making all sorts of flowers, bugs and birds. Some of the  crafts will be used to decorate our board and others we will be taking home.

Thank you to all of the parents who have been bringing in  recycled goods! We will be using a lot of them this spring to be creative!

Please remember your sneakers for the gym! We will also be  trying to get outside as often as the weather allows, please remember to dress  for the weather.

Hello Springerlands!

Our Talent Show at the end of March was a complete hit!  Thank you so much to all of the wonderful participants and fabulous parents and  family who came out to support the children!  I am looking forward to another Talent Show in the coming years.

Spring is finally here and we are enjoying every second of  warmth and sunshine.  We have been  utilizing the outdoors in every way possible: offering snack outside on the  picnic tables, offering group games on the field, and offering free play on the  playground.  The children have been doing  an excellent job following the rules and staying safe while outside!

Something new we have incorporated into the program is the  continuous use of music throughout the morning and afternoon.  The children have been enjoying singing and  dancing along to 80s bop, and are now being introduced to 90s bop.  We hope to keep introducing more music, keep  dancing and singing along, and end the school year with a bang!

Wow this year flew by! I can't believe it's almost over.
What will we do all summer without Beyblades, 4Square, making some awesome
potions, and rocking out to the Spice Girls? Man, I can't wait until next year and all the cool things we will do.

Have a great summer and see you all in September.
