Reminder, we have an early release this Friday 9/15, which means school hours will be 9am-11:35am. There are a lot of moving parts to Pre-k, so if you have questions please reach out!

Donna Kilday
We celebrated and congratulated Donna Kilday on Friday as we bid her a happy and relaxing retirement. Donna brought an infinite capacity of heart, knowledge and caring to the Rodman Early Childhood Program and the Canton community as a whole. We thank her whole heartedly for all her contributions and the life changing impacts she made for the families, students and staff of Canton. Below is a group picture of us from Friday. 🙂

More photos to come! We are waiting on photo consents to come in, so we can post more for you.
Parking Lot Reminders
We know the parking lot is a BUSY place! Thanks for your efforts on the items below!
1. Hold your child's hand at ALL times. If your child cannot tolerate hand holding, hold the back pack attached to them, their shirt-anything.
2. Please walk on sidewalks only. Do not walk in the middle of the parking lot.
3. Cross at crosswalks only. You will see our staff out there assisting you in these areas.
4. Please park in designated parking spots. We know the lots are very full, but parking in spots that are not designated can become a safety issue.
