1st Grade Chapel
Thank you to the 1st grade class for reminding us what it is like to be a peace maker. The 1st graders used Matthew 5:9, "Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called children of God."
Folk Song Celebration
On Friday, we had our 2nd annual Folk Song Celebration. The students, parents, grandparents, and other adult mentors had great time of singing, dancing, and creating memories. Fun was had by all!
Preschool Open House
Registering for preschool will look a bit different this year compared to past years. Although there will still be 2 sessions of preschool, when you register, you will not make a choice of the morning or afternoon session. You will register your child by just giving parent & child information. We will be dividing the classes equally based on birth date. We will have the younger students in the morning session & the older students in the afternoon. Considering the years of experience of the teachers and input from early childhood professionals & administration, it was decided that providing a preschool experience with developmentally similar classmates is beneficial to both the younger & older students in preschool. A couple of factors that went into the decision were:
- Child development β This is the number one factor guiding this decision. There are differences in attention, problem-solving skills, social skills, academic skills, etc. in a very young preschool student & one who is older. The curriculum is the same for both classes but can be taught in ways that accommodate the individual classes. Teachers will customize changes based on the developmental stage of the class.
- Stamina β Dividing the classes this way, takes stamina into consideration. Some younger students are in need of afternoon naps, whereas the older students can begin to build the stamina needed for all day kindergarten. In the past, we have noticed fatigue in younger afternoon students which impacts their retention of the skills taught.
We are aware that this change may cause you to adjust your preschool expectations, but we are confident this will have a positive impact on your childβs preschool experience and that is why we are doing this.
