Our wrap around teaching team this year, Mrs. Hennlich and Ms. McLaren, work closely with Mrs. Firestone and Mrs. Grender to meet the educational, social, emotional, Sonshine, and district goals of our 4K students. Because our Sonshine team provides continuous care (or looping with the same teacher for multiple years) at all levels, our wrap around teachers for 2021-2022 will be our current 3K teacher, Mrs. Wyatt.
