Ms. Marie’s Classroom Update

February 11, 2018

Dear Preschool Families and Friends,

It was a pleasure to meet with you last week during Parent/Teacher Conferences!  Your children are continually developing in so any ways and your input and feedback is very important. Thank you for taking the time to talk to me!

Our Valentine’s Day party is this Wednesday, February14^th!  Family members and friends may attend. Please bring enough Valentines for all students in the class – 16 total for AM, and 12 total for PM.   Please don’t address the Valentines.  Just have your child sign their own name on each of their Valentines.  We will help them hand out their Valentine’s on Wednesday. Please come to the main entrance of the school for the party. 

Thank you to all of those who signed up to bring items for a snack during the party!  We are still in need of paper plates and napkins for the AM class.  If you are interested, please email me. 

On Thursday, February 15^th, there is a Super Hero Starpower Reward.  The students may dress up as a SuperHero for the whole class.  Our AM class still needs to earn enough starpower stickers to receive the reward party, so, as always, please encourage your child to show their starpower!  We will tell the students on Wednesday if they have earned the starpower reward.

PLEASE NOTE:  No weapons or masks are allowed at school. 

Please be aware that all parents will be receiving an automated text message if their child is marked absent for the day.  Parents will receive this message in Real Time as soon as attendance is taken for the day.
