llness Policy
We greatly appreciate the conscience effort our parents are taking when illness strikes their children.  Our parents are keeping the children home when cold symptoms appear, as well as keeping the children home until the child completely recovers from an illness.  In some cases parents are giving them an extra day or two to rest and recover completely.  We thank you for taking those extra steps to help keep the school's environment as safe as possible.


Friendly Reminder
It is important that your child arrive at school on time.  Many magical things happen at the beginning circle!

Last Day Celebration
 The COVID pandemic altered our last day celebration and kindergarten celebration last year and it is impending our plans for this year’s celebration.  We will keep you informed as the plans fall into place.

New Labels on Various Snacks—Please Read Labels.
It has come to our attention that some brands on the market are adding a statement under the ingredient list that states:  May contain almonds, cashews, pecans, milk, wheat, soy.  As you know we are “nut free” when serving classroom snacks and celebration treats.  Please be diligent in reading labels when shopping for your child’s school snacks.  We do like to see that all of snacks brought in to be in the original containers making it easier for us to read the ingredients. When baking for the classroom as in snacks or celebration treats, please include a list of ingredients.  If any snack brought in contains nuts or hydrogenated oil (trans fat) it will be sent home for your family to enjoy.  Please also check juices as they need to be 100% juice. 

Thank You!
Thank you to all the parents that helped provide the napkins, plates, cups, cookies, frosting, strawberries and milk for the Valentine’s Day party.
