Preschool Weekly Update

“I am not afraid of storms, for I am learning how to sail my ship” – Louisa May Alcott

Greetings parents,

I hope you all had a restful weekend and were able to get out and enjoy this beautiful weather. It was so nice to have all the children back in the classroom last week. I know it was a busy week for all our families at SPN. The children enjoyed the Fun Run and the Celebration of Arts.

We did catch up on our “Bubbles, Boats and Floats” lessons and projects. This week we continue to focus on swimming, sailboats, ducks, rocks and fishing. We will be using small amounts of water for STEM projects and would like each preschooler to bring a hand towel. Please do not send anything bigger than a hand towel.

I have been reflecting on this past school year, and I want to say thank you for your partnership, friendship and support.

Blessings, Ms. Grace

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
