Greeting SELC PK Families,
Stowe Early Learning Center houses over 300 kids between the ages of birth through grade 5. There has been an increase of unsafe driving in our lots again. It is with URGENCY that I ask you to slow down, be patient, and use entrances and exit lanes appropriately. There are little ones coming and going to and from the SELC campus all day long and we must ensure they remain safe at all times.
Again, thank you for sharing your SELC experience with family and friends who have PK age kiddos! They can apply at www.enfieldschools.org by clicking on the red tile that says Stowe Early Learning Center Applications. See link below!
A FEW REMINDERS:
- If you have not updated your child's "change of clothes for school" since the Fall, now is a great time to do so! Even if your child does not have bathroom accidents, PK brings the possibility of milk, water, or food spills, damp playground equipment, puddles, etc.
- Parking lot safety is still a top priority. Winter weather could arrive at any time, making it even more urgent for everyone to SLOW DOWN AND PARK IN A SPACE.
- Remember to dress your child in layers, as it is easier to remove clothing if they are warm at school.
- Please send your Eaglet with mittens/hats and a warm winter jacket as we try to get outside even if it is for a walk around the building.

Attendance in PK and beyond
