KBC at the Academy

This week our friends in pre-k 3 started their cadet training. Kindergarten BootCamp is designed to help our friends be prepared for their next adventure in kindergarten. Ms. Renee has started working with our cadets on morning work and group art activities. This week, cadets wore their matching bootcamp shirts and participated in cafeteria day. Cadets learned how to carry their lunch tray and how to open their own milk carton. We look forward to continuing our boot camp training throughout the summer. 

Happy Memorial Day!

Thank you to those that have and are serving our country. Today and every day, we remember you. Stay safe AoHC fam!

Wheels on the Bus 🚌

On Monday, we learned about the school bus. Some of our friends made hats, some painted, some colored, and some even got to go see our Academy bus. Our friends that went to see the bus learned about bus safety and how to use the seat belts.
