Hello DeKeyser families,
Coming up in Second Semester, we will start our Pod Pals program! Like in the past, Pod Pals will give students an opportunity meet new teachers and students in other grade levels, learn team work skills, and the importance of being persistent. Pod Pals is once a month during the school day for 30 minutes. Students have been asking me about Pod Pals lately, so I am pretty sure they like the Pod Pals and are excited for it to start. Yet another reason why this is a great time to be a DeKeyser Dolphin!
With gratitude,
Mary Beth Merlo
