Spring is the Season of New Life

Director’s Corner

Hello Parents,

Welcome to April! Spring is here and good things are ahead.

We have more daylight hours which means more activity outside! I always think of spring as the season of New Life. We see it everywhere in the animal world.

I was reminded of this just days ago when my 14th grandchild came into the world. He is so new, so precious, and helps me to recognize the good around us, even when life can be overwhelming at times. It reminds us to capture the moment and look for good things moving forward.

When I think of spring, science and exploration comes to my mind. It is a great time to get outside and explore the environment with your child so they can discover new things.

Going to the Lorain County Metro Parks is a favorite! If you can, talk with the parks’ staff. They are always helpful and will answer questions concerning the parks or anything in them (www.loraincountymetroparks.com).

Yes! Spring is in the air which also means our spring break will begin Friday, April 15. School will be closed through the 22nd.

LCCAA recognizes that the CDC guidance has been updated as COVID cases seem to continue downward. We will continue through the rest of this school year with our COVID policies.

We are hoping that by the time we start again in September that we will be able to lift many of the COVID restrictions. Our concern and focus will always be about keeping the children safe.

Enjoy spring, and have a wonderful Easter holiday!
