Central Elementary PreK is so lucky to have a special visitor in Library Encore class! Carole Gajdosik (affectionately known as Mrs. G), a retired preschool teacher and director who enjoys sharing felt-board stories with young children, shared her love for literacy with our littlest Flucos this week. As you can see in the photo, the children were "over the moon" about the felt story time!
