Dear Parents,
We Hope everyone enjoyed their New Years! The children had so much fun learning about Winter, Martin Luther King’s Day, Farm Animals and Our 5 Senses and observing the weather outside last month. We look forward to a very exciting February!
This month we will learn about Groundhog Day, will he see his shadow? We will also be focusing on Dental Health/Personal Hygiene, Valentine’s Day, & President’s Day. We will have the children locate their teeth, identify a toothbrush and even pretend to brush their teeth. We will also reinforce with the children that it is important to brush their teeth everyday and what good foods to eat.
On Friday, February 13th we are having our Valentine’s Day party (be
sure to send your child dressed in Red!). The class is decorating hearts and learning about the heart shape. They also will discuss the nice things to do for someone you love. Please don’t forget to sign up to bring in a goodie for our celebration – Thank you!
For President’s Day the children will be hearing stories about our presidents and making an American flag. The children also review on a daily basis at circle time shapes, colors, etc. We count objects too.
We now have Quick Pay – The new and easy way to pay your child’s tuition! This is available through an email invoice which will be sent to you monthly. The
directions are on our website for online and automatic payments, please refer to the e-flier for a direct link and instructions.
Please be sure to watch or check online Channel 12 News or call the schools voicemail, and we now have an automated phone message for any days we will be closed or for important information.
If anyone would like to donate wipes and/or tissues, we have been going through so many boxes. We appreciate it!
If you are interested in Direct Deposit from your bank it is now available, please contact Dawn for further information.
Reminders:
- We are CLOSED Monday, Feb. 16 – President’s Day.
- Valentine’s Day Party – Friday February 13th.
- Please call if your child will be absent as soon as possible. Please pick your children up on time. If your child will be absent or if you will be late picking up, please advise the staff as soon as possible – thank you.
- Tuition payments are due on the first and no later than the 10th of the month unless otherwise arranged. Full Tuition price is due each month, there is no price adjustment when your child is absent, school closings or vacations.
- Please send in only 2 healthy snacks (morning snack and afternoon snack) and lunch.
- Breakfast is served until 9:15am. If you arrive after this time please ensure your child has been fed breakfast at home.
- Please remember our Health Care Policy: Children MUST be fever free for 24 hours before returning to school.
The cold weather is here!! The children will be going outside twice a day as
weather permits. Please dress your child appropriately and label ALL items (with child’s first and last name) that are brought to the school and also bring in an extra change of clothes too. To ensure safety, please have your child wear sneakers everyday, no open shoes, as they are not safe for the playground. Please practice putting on and taking off coats with your child as the cold weather is approaching and we will be practicing in class too. Please send in Mittens (no fingers please) it is much easier for the children to take on and off. Please remember to return sippy cups and blankets on Monday’s after bringing them home to be washed. Please bring in wipes and a change of weather appropriate clothes; Jacket, hat, mittens, pants, shirts, socks, and underwear (if needed) for your child.
