Sharing Birthday Sign-Up Genius available!

Hello, dear Parents!

I sent an email to everyone through SmartCare about our Valentine’s Day card exchange and Sharing Birthdays. I also wanted to post the links on this page, however.

For our own Valentine’s Day event (which we can have on Friday, 2/14, this year!), the children should bring in 29 homemade Valentine cards addressed “To my friend.” They can write their own names on the cards, of course! You can attach candy or other goodies to the cards. The children will make their own bags here at school. After the exchange, we tape the bags up and send the treats and cards home! The children will love showing you all the treats and unique Valentines they collected!

For our Sharing Birthdays Project, you can sign up on the link and bring in the treat on Valentine’s Day, Friday, 2/14. The children will use these treats to help put together a birthday box for a child in the homeless or foster care system. We’ll decorate the box with stickers and write a note to the child.  If you see “red/yellow”, “blue/yellow”, or “purple/yellow”, you can bring objects that are either one color or the other. If you find something that coordinates with those colors, or is bright and multi-colored, we will gladly accept it! Thank you so much, Parents!

Here are the links to sign up, by class:

We’re looking forward to Lunar New Year!

The older children will perform for each other and the little ones to celebrate the Year of the Rat on Friday, January 31st!

We’ll also have snacks available at snack time. If you are a great cook and would like to make snacks for the celebration, please let me know! Please dress your child in red on that Friday.

Ms. Gabi’s class will perform the lantern dance and walk; Ms. TaQueria’s class will perform the ribbon dance, and Ms. Joanna’s class will perform a modified version of the lion dance.

Enrollment notes headed home next week

Hello, dear Parents,I wanted to give you a notification that enrollment notes will go home in your child’s lunchbox next week. I will also let you know the day we place them in lunch boxes. The note asks you to confirm if your child will attend summer program, if they will return next year, or if you are interested in our kindergarten program.Please let me know if you have any questions at all!
