Swans Class Update
GPCP Fall 2015
Hi! I'm Tara Ingle, mother to Madeleine, wife to Louie and class parent!
A new role this year at GPCP, the class parent is a liaison between the educators and parents. The class parent helps to organize the following: two class socials, meal trains for families in need of support (illness, births, deaths), class meetings, classroom library books, and educator birthday, holiday, and parent appreciation celebrations. Please email me with any ideas or news you may have about our class families.

Request from our Educators
Want to help eliminate that look of panic on the faces of those entering our Swans' class restrooms? Your opportunity has arrived! ;-)
Our educators would like to start a campaign to beautify our restrooms. All contributions are welcome, but specifically they are looking for a shelf or bench to hold wipes and gloves. If you have some items to donate, talk to Christa. We all look forward to making that space as welcoming as the rest of our classroom!

Supporting Families
Please let me know when a Swan class family is in need of support for any reason. I will reach out to them to see how we can all best meet their needs. Thanks!
Celebration Ideas
Please email me with any ideas you have for educator birthday celebrations as well as holiday celebrations for our class. I will be reaching out for volunteers to help with these important events that encourage our children to care for others.
Nov. 17 at 7 p.m.
Class night will be here before you know it! Make plans to attend in order to hear interesting stories about our children's progress and to ask questions that you may have.
