Images from the Fall. School begins - First day orientation. An older - younger pair-up game. Circus Smirkus did a week's residency as part of our orientation.

Charlie - learning to juggle scarves. Performance at the end of the week. Crys with devil sticks. A middle school science seminar. Sharing a good book.
