Notes & Reminders While “Spring” is around the corner, there are still opportunities for bad weather

during the next month. Should bad weather be forecast please check your phone/messages for Honeywell alerts. They are sent out as soon as we are aware of a change in operating procedures. Also, please be aware that a “Delayed Opening” means school will open for everyone at 10:00am at the very earliest.

Thank you so much for your thoughtfulness on Valentine’s Day. All your cards, treats, and kind gifts made it a very special holiday for all of us.

We will be celebrating St. Patrick’s Day on March 17th.

Thank you so much! We’ve certainly appreciated the donations of wipes to help with messy hands for cleaning up after creating, as well as the special gifts that have made our classroom experience even more special. We also welcome disinfectant wipes, hand sanitizer, paper towels, plastic utensils and tissues.

Don’t forget that Half-Day Preschool (8:30am to 12:30am) and School Day Preschool(8:30am-3:00pm) will be closed Thursday, April 9th (Holy Thursday) through Friday, April 17th for Easter Recess.
