UPDATES!
At this time, I am working closely with the District regarding what the preschool expectations will be for the first two weeks of June, which are our the last two weeks of work. Our Preschool department follows suit with the DO as much as possible, however at this time I am awaiting to hear and establish our finalized plans. We will have a Zoom meeting on Tuesday May 26 at 11 a.m.- 12 p.m. to discuss what our expectations will be for 6/1 - 6/11. Don't forget, Monday May 25 is Memorial Day!
This week, our preschool teachers will be conducting parent teacher conferences all week long.
