Our Literacy Committee is So Sweet!
Our Literacy committee created a world of fun for our Sparks this year. Giant game boards, sweet surprises, an escape room, and so much more. Your enthusiasm made our Sparks love literacy even more! Thank you for your hard work, love of reading, and truly impressive amount of creativity!

At the Embers Parents Association’s fall presentation of Parenting in the Digital Age, Mr. Nial Fagan and Dr. Josh Williams led a wonderful discussion on the struggle parents face when balancing their children’s digital desires and healthy guidelines. Those in attendance raved about the practical applications of their presentation, and we are thrilled to be able to share that presentation with you today. We encourage all families struggling with the tech/life balance to watch this encore presentation!
