Acorns 4th Grade Harvest Festival Bake sale fundraiser!! Wednesday October 9th 530-8pm at James Super Save Foods
Students at Kathy Medford Preschool are exploring the roles of community helpers this month. They visited the Acorn Elementary library and met Mrs. Posey, who read books and discussed how she supports the community as a librarian.
Community Helpers Month provides an opportunity to appreciate and learn about the individuals who contribute to the safety, well-being, and education of our communities. This month-long focus allows young learners to develop a deeper understanding and respect for the diverse range of professions that support the needs of the local community.
