Christopher House

Once Upon a Book Fair was a storybook success at Christopher House! Last month, our halls were filled with excitement as scholars explored new stories, discovered favorite characters, and built their home libraries through the joy of reading.

From page-turning adventures to inspiring imagination and curiosity, the book fair reminded us of the power books have to open new worlds for young readers. Thank you to everyone who helped make this magical event possible and encouraged a lifelong love of learning through literacy.

Earlier this month, we celebrated the Week of the Young Child by bringing the joy of storytelling into our classrooms 📚

Families joined us to read with their children, creating meaningful moments of connection and learning. Little ones lit up as they followed along with familiar stories, proudly sharing the experience side-by-side with their loved ones.

These simple, powerful moments remind us that a love of reading starts early—and grows stronger when families and educators come together.

Our elementary and early childhood scholars celebrated Earth Day this week with a joyful parade around the school! 🌎 From handmade signs to creative art projects, they showed their love for our planet and reminded us all that every small action makes a difference.
