Almost August!

We hope that you've had a wonderful summer so far. We're still a few weeks away from the start of our school year, but we're posting out our basic supply lists now to give you plenty of time to get ready.  You can find the list for each class below.

Teachers will receive their class lists the week of August 13th and you should receive an email and/or a letter from your child's teacher shortly after that. 

Our Parent Open House is Wednesday, August 22, at 7:00 p.m. in the Sanctuary. This meeting gives our parents an opportunity to meet their child's teacher and get a sneak peek at classrooms. 

Our Student Get-Acquainted Day is Thursday, August 23, 9:00-10:30.  You can send supplies in your child's bookbag on the Get-Acquainted Day. 

There is no school on Friday, August 24. Regular classes begin Monday, August 27.

Threes and Fours
With our 3s and 4s we ask that you walk your child to his/her class at about 9:00, say a quick goodbye, and then return to the classroom at 10:30 to pick up him/her. Your child will have a chance to meet his/her teacher, interact with friends in the classroom, and have a little snack. 

Twos
Our 2s have their visit as a "playdate" with mom or dad, (or grandma or grandpa) some time between 9:10-10:30. We ask that you bring your child to his/her class, come in and look around with him/her, play a little bit and/or do an activity. After 15-20 minutes, you can pack up for home--but please talk to your child before classes start up the week of August 27th about all of the fun things and good friends that he/she will have to look forward to. You can send supplies in your child's bookbag on the Get-Acquainted Day.

Because one classroom has a class who will be attending TTh and a class who will be attending MWF, we're asking that all of our MWF students come by with their parents from 9:15-9:45 while our TTh students visit between 9:50 and 10:20. That way there will be plenty of room for everyone!

Our M-F class can stop by for a visit any time between 9:10 and 10:30 since all of these students will be in our five-day classroom. We anticipate some crowds around the 9:00 drop-off time and the 10:30 pick-up time for the rest of the building, so you might want to avoid those times!

We're looking forward to seeing everyone!  If your plans have changed and your family won't be joining us this year, please let us know.  We have waiting lists for several of our classes!
