Sunny Alvarez, the Aide in the kindergarten class, had part of her childcare arrangements fall through.  Childcare is what had made it possible for her to work at our school.  Now she is only able to work Mondays and Fridays.  Is there anyone in the Pacific community who is able to offer care for a 2-year old on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, or Thursdays during the school day?  If so, please email Sunny directly: Sunny Alvarez, salvarez@pacificesd.org Thank you!
