What's happening this week at SP:

Thankful!

We would like to extend a few Special Thank You's during this Thanksgiving Season. We here at Sylvan Park are very thankful for all of our teachers, staff and faculty that make the school run smoothly every day and take care of our children day in and day out.

We would literally NOT be here without you and we are so grateful to have you all in our lives.
