Notes from Miss Betz
Hope all went well for you and your family last week. We have a final push through to the end of the school year, only two full months left. Amazing that we’ve already come this far. If you can, come out to walk the campus to see all the wildflowers. We have over 33 different varieties of wildflowers on our property.
