Below is the letter we sent out via snail mail and email this weekend.
School officially begins on Monday, August 27. Carpool begins right away for our 3s and 4s. We ask that our 2s parents continue to do a walk-in/pick-up through that first week. It's also helpful if you place your child's carseat on the passenger side of your vehicle to make it easier for us to help your child get in and out. You'll receive more details about carpool from your child's teacher during Open House.
We've had a few changes in classes and staffing. Check below for more information on this. Right now we have a couple of spots open in our TTH 2s, one spot open in our 3s, and one spot open in our 4s. Our other classes are full with waiting lists. If your plans change about attending WIPP this year, please let us know so we can offer your child's spot to the next family on our list!
WIPP will continue its active participation in the Georgia Preschool Association and Georgia Accrediting Commission. Our staff is required to have instruction in developmentally appropriate educational practices each year in accordance with our accreditation. We have an open-door policy and welcome you to come and visit at any time. We strive to offer a caring, Christian environment that provides the skills, attitudes, and knowledge needed to enable each of our students to achieve his/her individual potential.
There's a copy of the school calendar posted on the blog--just check the link on the right hand side of the page. Our school blog is a great way to keep track of things going on in our building throughout the year.
Keep your eyes open for information on WIPP's Publix Partners changes. The program is changing to an online registration where you'll punch in an ID number during checkout. Last year we received over $800 from Publix—just from the use of our Partners cards! As soon as all of the details are in, we'll send out the information. Please continue using your Publix Partners cards in the meantime—Mine still worked this weekend! :-)
We also collect used toner and ink cartridges to recycle at Staples. For the last two years, we've used these recycling points to purchase all of the case paper used in the school throughout the entire year! If you (or your business) has used ink/toner cartridges (any brand) that you're not currently recycling, please send them to school in a Ziploc bag for us!
Beginning Tuesday, September 4, we will offer our Early Bird program each weekday morning starting at 8:15 for $2.00 per day. We will also offer our Lunch Bunch program Wednesday through Friday starting on September 5. Lunch Bunch hours are 12:00-1:00 at a cost of $5.00 per day. Students need to be potty-trained to stay for Lunch Bunch! In addition to the Y offering gymnastics pickup for Tuesday classes (Contact Islands Y for more info.) Sweet Feet Soccer will do 10 week programs in soccer on Mondays and lacrosse on Tuesdays. There will be additional information on all of this forthcoming.
We're looking forward to seeing you soon and sharing this year with you. Please feel free to contact me with any questions or concerns.
