The staff at Grace Preschool often talk about “The Silver Linings” of the COVID-19 Pandemic. Outdoor education, innovation, creativity, and close connections within COVID cohorts are just a few of the silver linings the teachers reference. One of the biggest challenges for the Grace Preschool teachers and parents has been a lack of community gatherings. An outdoor, socially-distanced bazaar is just the event that Grace was looking for!
The Christmas Bazaar at Grace Preschool is a time-honored community favorite. Even though Grace was not able to have the bazaar indoors this winter (due to COVID-19 regulations) they are excited to announce their very first Spring Bazaar to be held in their upper parking lot on May 8th from 10:00-2:00. Grace’s Parent Group President and point person for this event, Jennifer Payne, is confident that the bazaar will be better than ever!
