Letter from Ms. Tas

Dear Parents,
I would like to thank all of you from the bottom of my heart for your continued love and support of the school.  Without your help and support, this school would not be what it is today.

We had an amazing year filled with wonderful memories.  Every day is such a joy for me when I come to school and see the smiling faces of all of your wonderful children.  It amazes me how smart each and every one of them is.  To help shape their young minds has been my privilege, and I look forward to seeing them grow in mind, body, and spirit every day.

You, as the parents, have become some of my very great friends, and it is an honor to have you as a part of my life and my school.

I would also like to thank you on behalf of my great staff.  I know that they have enjoyed working with your children just as much as I have.  My staff and the children took a lot of time to put our End of the Year Concert together, and it came together beautifully.  I hope you enjoyed watching it just as much as we enjoyed putting it together.

Your children are a blessing to teach, and I thank you for trusting us with your child's education.

If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to ask!  I would be happy to answer them.

I hope everyone has a great summer!

All my love,

Ms. Tas

Summer Dress!

The sun will be out and so will we!  During the summer, we plan on having many outdoor activities in our playground such as coloring and water activities.
As such we ask that you dress your child appropriately.  We especially ask that you do not send your child to school in flip-flops.  They tend to get slippery when wet, and when the children walk it can cause them to slip and get hurt.  So please be sure to send your child in a shoe with a back.
We also ask that you be sure to put sunscreen on your child every day.  If you wish, you can send sunscreen and we will apply it for them.
During field trip days, be sure to send your child in the special field trip shirt!  We will have the order forms at the podium.

Summer is Here

Summer has begun, and with it we have begun our fun Summer Program!  We have a lot of fun and exciting activities planned this summer, and are eager to get started! 
We have a number of field trips planned, and have the schedule up on the podium.  Our first field trip is scheduled for June 14th.  We will be going to the Lakeridge Retirement Community to perform a concert!  Please be on the lookout for sign-up sheets for transportation. 
Additionally, we are ordering t-shirts to wear during our field trips that will help identify us as a group.  These are mandatory and the order forms will be placed at the podium.
On field trip days, we ask that you please pack your child a sack lunch with their name on it, and please make sure not to pack anything that requires microwaving as the places that we visit may not have microwaves!
We will have a reminder note up a couple of days before every trip in order to give you a heads up so please be on the lookout for those!  In addition to the field trips, we will continue our Montessori work.  We will be reinforcing a lot of concepts we have already learned throughout the year, and focus on reviewing the material.
We look forward to a fun and exciting summer!

Thank You!

We would like to thank all of the parents and family for coming out to our End of the School Year Concert!  It was such a great success, and we appreciate all of your support.  We would also like to thank Amy James, mother of Brookelyn James, for baking the delicious cupcakes for the party!
Additionally we would like to thank Ramiro and Yolanda Villareal, parents of Arath and Giselle, for bringing a yummy fruit and vegetable tray!

Pajama Party!

On Friday, June 20th, we will be having a Pajama Party!  Your child will be able to wear his or her pajamas to school and relax with their sleeping bags and pillows as we pop some popcorn, eat some pizza and watch movies!
If your child doesn't have a sleeping bag here, you may bring one for them.  This is a fun day, however it is not mandatory for your child to come in pajamas if he or she does not want to.  They won't miss out on the fun either way!  We look forward to seeing everyone's fun pajamas!

Schedule Change

With the arrival of summer, we will be changing our schedule a little bit.  As it will be very hot mid-morning through the afternoon, we will be taking the children outside around 9 a.m. every morning, weather permitting.
When we are outside, we will bring work outside for them to work on, in addition to coloring, and water activities. 
We will still be having lunch at 12:00 p.m. every day.
