Washington Early Learning Center
The Washington Eagles
Week of September 8th-12th, 2014
From the Eagle's Nest!
Phew! We made it through last week! There were plenty of challenges with our parking lot being under construction and all the newness of moving to a new location and having lots of new families. I think everyone did a wonderful job!
We will be making a few changes to our drop off and pick up procedures now that the parking lot is complete and we have a better idea of how the flow of children and parents looks during those times. Please read about those changes in this newsletter.
Our library is coming together! Mrs. Heather Hansen has been working hard to organize materials and get that space ready to host classes. We are targeting next Monday, September 15 for the first day of library classes. Mrs. Hansen is only at WELC on Mondays, so that will be our library time each week.
Please be aware that we are sharing our parking lot with the City of Neenah. Please read the information in this newsletter regarding this.
I look forward to a full week with our students (Monday-Thursday)!
Thank you,
Mrs. Nelson

Drop Off and Pick Up Procedures, REVISED!
We are going to make a change to our drop off and pick up procedures in order to make things less congested in the main hallway entrance.
Title One Preschool Program (Mrs. Miller's class)
Mrs. Miller's students need to be dropped off and picked up from the entrance located at 220 E. Franklin Ave. This door does not have a buzzer or camera system, so you will need to wait for the door to be opened by staff members. They will open this door 5 minutes before your designated drop-off time. Please note: if you arrive late and this door is no longer open, you will need to go around to the parking lot doors and ring the buzzer.
For dismissal, the staff will open the doors as soon as the students are ready to be dismissed. Please be patient as we work through this new process.
Early Childhood Classes
All early childhood students will continue to use the door off of the parking lot. Our busses will also be unloading from the BUS LANE area of the parking lot and coming in these doors.
AM SESSION
Drop off time will be 8:40. Staff will be at the doors to receive the children.
Pick up time will be at 11:15. Please wait outside the doors for staff to open the doors for dismissal.
PM SESSION
Drop off time will be 11:55. Staff will be at the doors to receive the children.
Pick up time will be 2:30. Please wait outside the doors for staff to open the doors for dismissal.
Our new parking lot is complete!
We will be sharing our parking spaces with the City of Neenah. Please refer to the map below to verify which spaces belong to the ELC. We have the spaces that have been highlighted in yellow. The green spaces belong to the City. If the lot is full, there should be plenty of spaces available on Franklin Ave.
Please note: If you park in the lot, please try and cross through the parking lot in the designated pedestrian area, that is marked with diagonal lines, in the middle of our parking lot.
