Preschool Weekly Update – Week of 9/3

Jesus,
You became one of us and labored as a carpenter. You ask all people — whatever our state of life — to follow you faithfully.

Holy Spirit,
Bless all  workers this Labor Day. May all our actions be animated by Your love, as we do all things for the glory of God.
– Amen

Hello preschool families,

Thank you for attending our, “Back to School Night.” It is always special when we come together as a community to share our goals and commitment to all our SPN students.

We will be starting our, September, “Friends and Feelings” curriculum when we return on Tuesday. In this month’s theme, we will explore our feelings, making friends and kindness. At the end of the month we will send your child’s work portfolio home.

Van Buren Street will be closed on Thursday, September 5, from 8:00am – 6:00am.

Enjoy the 3 day weekend!

Peace, Ms. Grace and Miss Rosie

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."
