Dear Friends,
So much school info this week that it saves me from having to write a letter. Lots of luck to teachers, parents and students.
God Bless,

Welcome Back, Students and Teachers
Schedule for First Week of School
In order to ensure a smooth adaptation period for students into the preschool curriculum, the teachers have designed an orientation week.
Preschool
Wednesday, August 22 – Parent Orientation
There are no preschool classes during the day. There will be a Parent Orientation meeting in the evening from 7pm until 8:30pm in your child’s classroom. This will be an opportunity for parents to spend time with their child’s teacher and to learn about the structures and routines in the preschool classroom. This informative introduction to the school year is intended for parents only, not students. Even if you have had children in our preschool program in previous years, you are still asked to attend. Every year is a different experience.
Thursday, August 23 – Student Orientation (A-M)
Parents and students are invited to the preschool classrooms for a half-day introduction to the structure and routines of our classes. This is a time for children to get acquainted with their new teacher and to become familiar with a new setting. This orientation will begin at 8am and end at 10am. Thursday will be only students with last names A through M.
Friday, August 24 – Student Orientation (N-Z)
