News and Reminders
- Father's Day: Just a reminder that Father's Day is Sunday, June 19th. We'd be happy to purchase any supplies or materials you need. Just let us know!
- Dress Code: With summer finally here, we wanted to send a quick reminder about our summer dress code policy. You can wear skirts, dresses and shorts as long as they are no higher than 1/2" above the knee. Also, all shoes must have backings on them.
- Laundry Schedule: Everyone on the first floor should have received a new laundry schedule. Please only use the washer/dryer during your scheduled time.
- Garden: Our garden is growing! Please feel to use and integrate the garden into your lesson plans however you would like. We designed it with sensory experiences in mind. Although it will be some time before the kiddos can taste what we've planted, they can enjoy the other sensory experiences in the mean time.
- Music and Movement: We are so excited to get our music and movement program started here at this location! Each classroom will have music time twice per week. Be on the lookout for a music schedule with your designated music time. We are also putting something in the parent newsletter so they are aware as well. Please hold off giving them any additional information until we have an exact date for music to begin.
