Fall Information
As we get ready to transition to Fall, we know many family’s schedules will change. Please turn in a schedule change request from at least 2 weeks before your anticipated change date. If your child will be transition to elementary school, we will need your new schedule or last day into us by August 14th.
Our elementary school bus rosters have been finalized and those approved for busing have received their notification. If you need busing and are unsure if your child has been approved, please see the office. Please be on the lookout for new enrollment paperwork. We update our files every Fall, so will need paperwork to be competed and returned as soon as possible.
Meet the Teacher Night will be September 6th. All are welcome to come and have your child show you their new classroom and talk with their teacher. Hope to see you there!
Water Days (Mondays)
Water days are Mondays in August. Please send your child with a swimsuit, water shoes, and towel. We will be playing in the water tables and sprinklers on the playground.
