School is Starting!

Hope you all had a wonderful summer!  Ms. Miller and I certainly did!! 

August 19, from 11:30 - 1:00, please feel free to stop by to say, "Hi", and leave any school materials you have ready.

August 22, 7:45 AM, school starts!!!  This year our students in our three-year-old program attend school from 7:45 - 10:45 (please be prompt with your pickup as we need to be moving to another location at that time...Thanks in advance!), and our students in our four-year-old program attend school from 7:45 - 2:00.

A few things about clothing:
Remember, "messy" is our middle name!  Learning in our room is very hands on and we're quite messy (paint and such), so please save your child's finer duds for non-school time.  Also, we work really hard on everyone's independence.  It's not a reasonable expectation of children who are 3 and 4 to be able to tie their own shoes, but...if they have shoes with Velcro, they can do it ALL BY THEMSELVES...which they LOVE!  Same goes for pants.  If your child cannot do their own button/zipper, elastic is best because they can do that part of the potty routine independently, and independence and confidence is what we all want for our kiddos.  Note:  those jeans with buttons/zippers that also have elastic are fine as the children can pull them up and down without undoing that part.

Thanks!  We're very excited to see you all!!!!
