CELEBRATING BLACK HISTORY MONTH
Throughout the classrooms, students have been studying Black History Month by learning about important historical figures (scientists and inventors in Science, dancers and artists in History...) and discussing the importance of diversity and different perspectives -- even in Preschool! This beautiful art piece is a combination of handprints from every Preschooler at CES with a lovely writeup by lead 2s teacher, Mrs. Jeanne Durso.
