Upcoming Events

Hello Pre-K Families,

We are finishing up our second week of dinosaurs and the kids are loving it!  Our first field trip was very successful!  The children enjoyed the movie, snack and bus ride.  They were excellent listeners and followed our rules nicely.  I wanted to send out an update with just a few upcoming events. 

~ February 13th or 14th will be our Valentine's Day parties.  We will celebrate in the morning by playing some games, watching a short video and handing out valentines.  Your child may bring a treat to share.  Please remember that the children will have to take most of the treats home, so please send something that won't get squashed or ruined on the trip home.  Your child may start bringing in his/her valentine's whenever.  Please label them "My Friend."  That way your child can pass them out!
