We are thrilled to announce that Zoodles Animal Encounters will be visiting our school this Wednesday to educate our students about science and wildlife! Our students will get an up-close and personal experience with amazing animals while learning crucial lessons about habitats, conservation, and biology. We can't wait!
Zoodles provides this fantastic educational program to our school completely free of charge thanks to the revenue generated from their optional animal photo orders.
If you would like your student to have a memorable picture, please return the photo order form that was sent home (extra forms available in the office).
Your prompt attention to the waiver and support of the photo orders are both highly appreciated! #ScienceEducation #WildlifeLearning
