Last year, on our one year anniversary of opening Apple School, many families teamed up and gifted our school a beautiful and fitting apple tree that we planted on our front yard near the flag post. It was such a great and collective effort from our families to bring something so amazing on our one year birthday and Apple School’s goal was to attempt to get the most out of the tree and grow as many apples as the tree possibly could. Today, on June 16th, as we mark our 2nd year anniversary/birthday we finally picked the apples off the tree and were able to get a wonderful selection of delicious and gorgeous looking fruits. In honor of last years wonderful gesture from our parents, we will take the apples that we picked off this morning and cut them into slices that each of our students will be able to eat during snack time to truly unite all of us in the meaning of the Apple tree from year 1 to year 2 of our existence. I thank all of the families that participated in last years giving of the tree to our school and i am so happy to have the entire staff, and children at Apple School partake in a unique moment of all of us taking a bite of something gifted by you, grown by us, and cultivated by all. We look forward to more experiences like these as we grow in our future!
