Fact of the Day:  Leap Days are needed to keep our calendar lined up with the Earth’s revolutions around the sun.  It takes the Earth approximately 365.242 days or 365 days, 5 hours, 48 minutes and 45 seconds – to circle the sun. This is called a tropical year.  Without an extra day on February 29 every four years we would lose almost six hours every year.  After only 100 years, our calendar would be off by approximately 24 days.  Happy Leap Year!!!

Lunch for Today:  Hot ham and cheese on a bun, cold carrots, pears, sugar cookie snacks, and milk

Friday: Cheese pizza, lettuce, oranges, double chocolate cookie, and milk
