Holiday Community Service Project
In the spirit of giving, we are wanting to make a donation to the Carrying Hope organization. After much thought, we would like to focus on the Infants and donate 75 containers of formula and 500 diapers. More details coming soon!!!
Safety Reminders
With the holidays approaching it is not uncommon for visiting family members to stop in to pick-up students as a surprise. While we always love meeting our students’ grandparents, aunts, uncles and siblings we do want to remind you all that anyone picking up a student must be listed as an authorized pick-up or we must be notified in advance. Visitors that are new to our school and not accompanied by a parent are expected to show a government issued photo ID.
Clothing Reminders
Fall is a great time to go through your child’s cubby and ensure they have the items needed to comfortably enjoy the coming months. Students should have a complete change of clothes in their cubby that includes; pants, a long-sleeved shirt or light sweater, socks and underwear. Please make sure that everything is labeled with your child’s first and last name. We are looking forward to lots of outdoor time as the weather cools off, and closed toed shoes are necessary for playing on the playground and participating in outdoor lessons. Please ensure that your child has appropriate footwear.
