September news

We made it through the first 4 days!!  The beginning of the week was so hot and we were all melting but thankfully it cooled off for us!  I'm sure your child was tired when s/he came home this week! The kids are doing a great job with getting into the class routines, learning the rules, and following ALL of the directions I have been giving them!  There is so much to learn and know in kindergarten!  We have been talking about class/school rules and each day I'm seeing progress with remembering them!

Thank you all for sending in the supplies for the class, it helps to make it run more smoothly.  From time to time I may put some items on my wish list.

Thank you for sending your child in with a snack each day.  I told the boys and girls 1-2 snacks &/or a drink should be plenty.  I also told them that if they bring a lunchbox with a sandwich in it, they are most likely not buying lunch.  This may be good to discuss with your child and explain to them that it is a choice to buy OR bring lunch.  At your screening appointment, I gave you a lunch menu (you can access the future menus from the school website).  We do have students with peanut and tree nut allergies.  Please be mindful of what you pack for your child.  We are doing our best to "monitor" the snacks and lunches but your help with this would be great!  We are looking out for the safety of the students.

I look forward to seeing you at Parent Information Night on the 21st, it will begin at 6:30 in the gym with Dr. Bilsborough.
