Kindergarten Update

Dear Parents, Friday, May 29,2020

We made it! Your children are almost First Graders! Your children have shown growth in their emotional, social and academic education this Kindergarten year. We have been privileged to work with your children, especially in this time of Social Distancing and Long Distance Learning on Zoom. It’s been challenging for all.

For our last week of school, we are making some changes in the Morning Zoom class so please check the weekly letter describing the changes and some fun additions to our Zoom Class.We will focus on finishing up the last skills in the SuperKids Unit and Bridges Math curriculum.

The students did a fabulous job on their Saints Reports! We so enjoyed hearing their presentations and appreciate all of the extra work involved. It’s a great learning experience in preparation for the older grades.

We will also share our Art Gallery Slideshow and the Ribbon Ceremony this week .The Ribbon Ceremony is precious and their Art is fabulous!

Our SuperKid this week is Joshua. He will share on Tuesday.

The Guessstimation Jar goes to Liam H. and we will do our guessing on Thursday instead of Friday for this last week.

What Our Families are Saying

"The supportive teachers at SPN played a big role in preparing me for high school and helping me understand what to expect. They encouraged me to ask questions and seek help when needed, which made me more confident in my learning. Thanks to them, I entered freshman year already familiar with many concepts and effective study habits that have helped me stay on top of my work. SPN also taught me valuable life skills that I still use today, helping me succeed academically, build strong friendships, and maintain my overall well-being."
— Tibby Horvath, SPN Class of 2022
"We are very satisfied with the SPN community, something that is important to our family. My children feel safe and comfortable with SPN. Our family feels connected with the SPN community from parents and families to the staff and faculty. My children and we as parents have made healthy and positive relationships with other families from school. We share time outside of school with other families which brings a level of connectedness I don't know if we would have elsewhere"
— SPN Parent
"My children are experiencing community in other ways than just friends and playdates. Faith Families is an example of community, interacting with students from all grade levels, and learning and creating for others outside of SPN. Field trips to Kids Against Hunger or the Alameda Food Bank where they work and see firsthand how their efforts help others less fortunate, for those who are in need of support. Community is not just our SPN ‘bubble,’ and that is what SPN demonstrates and provides– opportunity to explore a bigger community."
— SPN Parent since 2016
