Today, Officers Diem and Catherwood from the St. Charles Police Department stopped by for a visit at our Murphy Farm Preschool! The kids loved seeing the lights on the car (and hearing the horn). They asked lots of questions and had a blast learning about safety, helping others, and how cool police badges actually are. Huge thanks to our local heroes for taking the time to connect with our students! 👮


Big shoutout to Ms. Pat for her amazing read-aloud in Valley Classroom J! She took the time to break down every sentence in the text, and the students absolutely loved it! #WeekOfTheYoungChild #Orange

Students in Ms. LaToya's Valley Preschool classroom have been working hard on their study of pets! They have documented what pets they have as a class and even sent in pictures of their pets from home. Children explored what pets eat and where they live. Then, children created their own pet fish and named it so everyone could have their own pet. These young scientists are learning so much! #OurStory #SaginawISD






The best part about having storms last week is playing in enormous puddles! Murphy Farm Preschool students might have gotten a little wet even with their Oakies on. #SaginawISD
