School Family!

This week at Academy Of Gateway we have been working on our family trees. We have talked about our family's at home and our school family. Family is the single most important influence in a child's life. From their first moments of life, children depend on parents and family to protect them and provide their needs. They are a child's first teachers and act as role models in how to act and how to experience the world around them.
