Calendar of Activities
Dear Preschool Families,
Many wonderful activities have been planned for our little ones as we enter the holiday season. Listed below are important dates to mark on your calendars; as well as information about our holiday schedule. Your child’s teacher will share the details with you about each event; hope to see you there.
Thank you for your support of our Walkathon Fundraiser. Class participation is noted on posters in each classroom. Children who earn T-Shirts (with a $50.00 donation) can wear them any day during the Walkathon Fundraising campaign.
Classroom changes will occur this Monday as we shift our classroom assignments to best accommodate our ratios in compliance with licensing standards. Room 102 will move to Room 105 with Mrs. Steele; Mrs. Gunther will teach the
3s along with Mrs. Martinez who will serve as a full time aide. Mrs. Bold’s class will remain the same.
Please continue to use the main school entrance for pick up and drop off. The east entrance will remain locked for security purposes.
We thank you for the privilege of teaching your children, and we are here to serve you. If you have any questions or concerns, I can be reached at 452-1000 ext. 228 or on my cell phone at 279-9388.
Sincerely,
Mary Holcombe
Principal
