ORIENTATION - THURSDAY, AUGUST 29TH
Do you have questions about the ABC's of Kindergarten? This packet of information came home in the ziploc bag you were given at Meet the Teacher! If you have any questions regarding that information, you are welcome to join us IN THE LIBRARY on August 29th from 5:30-6:30. Each kindergarten teacher will be going over the ABCs at that time. Please also note that Fall Conferences take place in October, and are a great opportunity to speak one on one with your child's teacher about personal concerns you may have!
WOLF HOWL - FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 6
Each month we have a schoolwide assembly that we refer to as our "Wolf Howl"! If your child is being recognized that month, someone from the school should notify you in advance. We'd love to have you join us!
DISMISSAL
A few notes about dismissal:
- Transportation changes cannot be made after 2pm.
- If you need to pick up your child early, please do so before 2:30pm as to not interfere with dismissal.
- If you email your child's teacher about a transportation change, you MUST receive a response from your child's teacher to verify! If you do not receive a response before 2pm, please call the front office.
Thank you for your cooperation in ensuring your child's safety! :)
Word Wall
The table below is of our kindergarten word wall, and it will be updated weekly with our new word(s). Please practice these words with your child at home so that they will become memorized and recalled quickly. :)
