Sparkly Star Staff Stuff: August 18, 2014

Week one- check! Congratulations on a fabulous first week! It was so fun to walk the campus and see happy kids and teachers building community and diving right into academic content from the very first day. Our smooth opening is due to the hard work of every person at Star! Thank you so much for making our school such an amazing place to be every day! I see treasure everywhere!

Here is a little collection of images from the first week...

And here is a fun video and song to make you smile! Turn it all the way up!
