Kindergarten Update
Dear Parents, November 1, 2019
Thanks to all the parents who helped with our Halloween Breakfast , Games and Craft Activity. It was a fun day!
In the spirit of Thanksgiving and as we approach the holiday season, we would like to have the students create a “Board Of Thankfulness.” Coming home this Monday will be the directions for the Board. It will be our November homework. On Thursday, November 21st the students will share their boards with the class. On Friday, November 22nd you may drop by after school or Share and Care to see our Boards displayed in the Kindergarten Hallway. All of this information will go home on Monday, November 4th with your child’s homework folder.
( PLEASE NOTE THERE IS A CHANGE ON THE INSTRUCTION SHEET FOR COMING TO VIEW THE CHILDRENS’ BOARDS. WE WILL NOT DO AN OPEN HOUSE BUT JUST A DROP IN INSTEAD. This message supersedes that letter. Thank you.)
We have been assessing your children in preparation for report cards. We hope that these will give you an accurate assessment of your child’s progress. You may contact us at any time if you have questions or concerns.
At pick up time,please remember to supervise your children out in front of the Parish Office and Kindergarten Room. Students have been reported to be running around with little or no parental supervision. This is a busy street area with many cars. Please don’t allow your child to play there at dismissal time.
Super Kid this week is Joseph.
Rosie went home with Cole.
