May 19th – May 23rd
Even though the end of school is rapidly coming closer, the class is still working hard. There is much more left to learn before school is out. We are now having an ABC countdown to summer. This is a fun way to count down until the end of the school year!

If you would like come you can still meet us in Chicago at Navy Pier. If you would like to meet us, please include this information in your permission form and the cost is $7.00.
