Tuesday, November 30



Welcome back! We hope that you had a wonderful and family-filled Thanksgiving. It's hard to imagine that the Christmas holiday season is already upon us. Look for the December newsletter in your child's backpack this week. Here are the highlights!


  
Inclement Weather
As we approach the time of year when temperatures might dip below freezing (!!!) just a reminder that if Savannah-Chatham public schools close because of bad weather, we also close.


 
Christmas Week Information
  
Class Christmas Parties
Classes will have their Christmas parties on Wednesday or Thursday (12/15 or 12/16) depending on attendance days. Keep your eyes open for more information from your child’s teacher and/or room mother.

Christmas Program
Our school Christmas program will be on Friday, December 17th , at 9:30 in the Sanctuary. All of our children will participate in the performance. Siblings attending WIPP dress as angels with light colored clothing, a halo and/or wings. More details on individual class “costumes” will follow from your child’s teacher.

Everyone is invited to join us for cookies and punch afterward in Fellowship Hall. We’d like to do a school-wide cookie sharing this year. As your family does their holiday cookie baking, would you please make an extra dozen to send to school? See the bottom of the newsletter sent home for the form to return with your child.

 

A Peek Ahead at January
  • We return to school on Tuesday, January 4th.
  • No school on Monday, January 17th. (Martin Luther King, Jr. Day)
  • No school for students on Friday, January 28th. (Parent/teacher conferences) 


 


W.I.P.P. CHRISTMAS COOKIE RECIPE EXCHANGE
As you start your holiday baking, please make an extra dozen of your favorite cookies and send them to school on a disposable plate (paper or plastic) along with one copy of the recipe. If you’d like to include your name, that would be great, but we’ll accept anonymous donations! These can be sent to school during the week of December 13th and we’ll store them until our program on Friday morning.
