Drop Off Procedures

2/28/2019

Just a reminder!

Early Childhood school hours are 8:15-2:15. Students should be at their designated door by 8:15.

Early Childhood teachers will open doors at 8:15 and close doors by 8:20. This should allow enough time for those parents dropping children off at K0 and K1 doors. Please be sure to stay with your child until you see that they entered the building. Safety is at the forefront of every policy we have. 

Please make every effort to be on time. Any student arriving after the doors are closed should enter through the front door on East Broadway. Parents/Guardians must wait with their child in the foyer until an early childhood staff member is available to escort your child to their classroom.

Hello families!

Next week we will be taking a break from OWL to do Valentine's Day themed centers!
The centers are:
Love Monsters
Valentine Envelopes
I love you to pieces
"I Love" Books

We will be celebrating Valentine’s Day in school on Thursday, February 14th. Students can bring in valentines for their classmates. Each child will distribute valentines to each of their classmates. 

On February 14th, please send in valentines with your child's name on it (you do not need to address each valentine, just make sure it is signed with your child's name).

We will be having our party during snack time (children do not need a snack). It is sure to be a fun day! Thank you to our room reps and parents who volunteered to supply our party!

Have a great weekend!
