Preschool Weekly Update

Dear Preschool Parents,

Our new theme for November is “On the Go!”. We will be learning all about transportation, navigation and the letters Dd & Uu. We will also continue to match these with our Mystery Science mini lessons.

In accordance with our School Wide Learning Expectations, we will be awarding students with a special “SLE”.  Students must exhibit Respect, Responsibility, Reverence and showing steps towards being Lifelong Learners. SLE recognition sheets will go into a basket for a raffle each week on Wednesdays to earn Free Dress!  Each Wednesday a name will be selected from the basket and a winner will be awarded a Free Dress!  This will include students from our Early Elementary Wing,  Preschool-Kindergarten.

Please remind your preschoolers that grabbing and piling on top of each other is not allowed in school. This is normal play for kids but we have had kids kicked in the head, ear and necks scratched. This type of play should be done at home with playdates.

Blessings, Ms. Grace and Ms. Whitney

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
