The Palette St. Francis Art a La Carte Newsletter October 2013 Happy Fall, Y all!!! Dear AALC Docents, It is hard to believe that we are already in October! I hope everyone has enjoyed the first lessons. I know our kids love having us in their classrooms. We are working on finalizing dates for the October and December fellowships and we will send out an e-mail with dates soon. Thank you to the AALC Board for working so hard on the fall training sessions! I hope everyone found the workshops helpful in preparing for the year. Thank you for supporting AALC and helping to make this program such a success. Best, Rhonda Vining AALC Chair
