FIRST CITIZEN'S BANK
First Grade Off-Campus Experience
As part of their study on Community Helpers, the first graders took a walking trip to First Citizen’s Bank this week. Children were excited to sit at the boardroom table in the large, swivel chairs. (Did you smile when you got that picture in your mind?) First graders heard about some of the business conducted at a bank, including saving and borrowing. Next students were encouraged to draw pictures of something valuable and then shown how those valuables can be safely locked away. Of course, no trip to the bank is complete without a lollipop or two, so our sweet children came home with goody bags. We LOVE having Charleston as our campus!

Katie Hodgson will be speaking this evening about Executive Functioning tools and how they are critical for your student's success now and for his/her life. How to be organized, get tasks started, prioritize responsibilities, stay focused and then reflect on what worked and didn't in order to make effective changes, are learned skills that we will review. Please join us tonight at 6:30 PM in the CDS Library.
