Hi Families!
Thank you again for all of your help with the St. Patrick's Day parade. The teachers provide a brunch after the parade for the Grand Marshal and his attendants (joined this year by the Emerald Society and the Tybee Beach Brigade) and every year the compliments abound on the behavior of our kids and how fun our little parade is for everyone. If you haven't seen the pictures yet, check out the blogs! All of the class blogs can be accessed through the right side of the school blog at www.wippreschool.blogspot.com.
Next week is our Spring Break. We hope that everyone has a wonderful week off! We'll see you back at school on Tuesday, April 3. We'll have a Spring Celebration for the kids at school this Friday (Thursday for Miss Emily's 2s and 3s) with popcorn and popsicles--and even some classroom egg hunts. Because of the way our St. Patrick's Day Parade/Spring Break/Easter Holidays are on this year's calendar, we're not having our traditional Easter parties. Those will resume next year!
Teachers are in the process of scheduling spring conferences for our students. We know that we see many of you at carpool, in the classroom, and in our neighborhoods, so you might not feel the need for a formal conference--we can also email or call you to keep you up-to-date!
We will have the folks from Savannah Speech and Hearing at WIPP on Wednesday, April 4, to do Kindergarten screening for our 4s. There is no charge for this service! Forms were sent home this week if you'd like to opt your child out of the screening--I know some of you may already have had it done by your child's pediatrician--please make sure you send back the form back in!
After we return from Spring Break, look for registration forms for Sunshine Summer to come home. The three weeks following the end of our school year will be filled with fun and exciting activities! You can check the blog for some of the fun from last year! (http://wippreschool.blogspot.com/2017/06/sunshine-summer-week-3.html )
For those of you who have children participating in Sweet Feet Soccer at WIPP, our two make-up days will be Wednesday, April 4th, and Monday, May 7th.
Below you'll find a calendar for the remainder of the school year. If you have any questions, please call the office or email!
Happy Spring!
Kathleen
