The Cove's Wellness Center, the Zen Den, is Open!
The kids are loving the calm space. If you have extra stickers, coloring sheets, word searches, legos, bracelet making, coloring supplies laying around that need a new home, we would love them! Any calm, quick and quiet activities that kids can do that require minimal set up and clean up would be greatly appreciated. Please drop off any supplies in the bin labeled ZEN DEN supplies on the cart outside the main office. Thank you for helping to support our kid's wellness!

After School Supervision Required
Parents and families—please share this info with all of your childcare providers. We are having a problem with supervision on the blacktop and around campus after school. Students who are not in 5G may not stay and play unsupervised after school. If adults choose to stay with their children after school, then it is essential that the adult actively supervise. Everyone is expected to follow school rules during 5G hours. This includes: no climbing on the storage sheds or into the garden, no wrestling or play fighting, no biking/wheels on blacktop, no throwing rocks, no profanity, etc. Thank you for your help in this matter!
