Dear Parents,
The 2024-2025 school year is off and running and we are having a great time! We are still trying to get settled in with no tears being shed and learning our daily routines. There are a lot of new experiences coming the children's way and it takes a little time for it to all settle in. We have spent a lot of time learning about each other and learning the names of our new friends! We have been learning to sit quietly while a story is being read, while our friends are leading us in the Pledge of Allegiance or telling us about the weather. We have also been busy decorating our hallway and making things to take home. Please remember to check those backpacks
every day for any important papers or projects!!
Parents please continue to help your child at home with zipping and unzipping their backpacks, putting their backpacks on their backs and helping them in the bathroom. For example, wiping, flushing and washing their hands after they are done. These may seem like simple tasks to you but it really helps with them becoming independent. Independence is a big thing that we work on here at school.
As always, October is a busy month. As we proceed through the month we will enjoy the arrival of Fall and our annual hayride at Goodman Farm. The information you will need to know about this event is on the accompanying permission slip. Please note the following: the hay wagon leaves at 10:00AM SHARP and the cost this year is $5.00 per person. One parent or guardian must attend the hayride with their child. If your other children are off school on this day they may attend as well.
School pictures will be taken on Wednesday October 16, 2024. The order forms will be sent home soon. Please send in your order form and check by picture day. Dress your children in something bright and send along their smiles!
Of course the month ends with our Halloween celebration. Your child should arrive to school in costume, with all costume parts labeled. Our parade will be outdoors (weather permitting) starting at 9:15AM. We love to show off our costumes and sing a few songs, so don't forget your cameras! Please check the easel at drop off/ pickup for our Halloween party sign up sheet.
A big thanks to our September snack parents!! All of our treats were delicious and enjoyed!!
Also a September birthday shout out to our friend Tucker!!

Mrs. T
