It’s hard to believe that the school year is almost over. It has been a joy to watch your children grow spiritually, mentally, physically, socially, and emotionally this year. We are happy for them but also a little sad to see them grow up so quickly.
MISSION: KIMBERLY HOME CLOTHING DRIVE
Our last clothing drive for Kimberly Home is May 4th – 8th. The Kimberly Home is a 501cs pregnancy resource center that offers assistance to women and families. The services include pregnancy and parental education, transitional housing, adoption resources, counseling, mentoring and referrals to other community resources. Clean out those closets and bring in your gently used clothing and shoes! Look for the large labeled container in the Robin’s Nest hallway for your donations.
GRADUATION
We want to create an enjoyable and memorable graduation experience for all of our graduates this year. In order to achieve that goal we have photographers that will capture the moment when your child receives his/her diploma. We will also make the video of the entire program available to you at the best possible price. For your part we are asking that you simply sit back and enjoy the program. You may still take a photo from your seat. The children and the teachers have worked hard and we want to honor their efforts by not interrupting the program with unnecessary distractions. We thank you in advance for your cooperation.
VPK LAST DAY ATTENDANCE
VPK students are required to attend the last day of school on May 22nd. Any VPK child not present on the last day will be listed with the Early Learning Coalition as not having completed the VPK program. We thank you in advance for your cooperation.
NO LUNCH BUNCH/EARLY DISMISSAL
Please note that there will be no Lunch Bunch or Extended School Day on May 13th or 22nd. All students will be dismissed at 12:15 p.m. on those days.
LAST DAY ACTIVITIES
There will be last day celebrations on May 21st or May 22nd for the children. The teachers and their classes will celebrate their last days together before saying good bye.
TUITION 2015-16 REMINDER
If your child is enrolled for the 2015-16 school year, your first installment payment will be drawn on August 1, 2015. Parents of VPK students, we thank you for your voluntary donation. Don’t forget to get your VPK Eligibility Certificate to us if you haven’t already. Your child can not be enrolled into a class without their certificate unless they are private pay.
THANK YOU ALL FOR THE BEAUTIFUL AND DELICIOUS TREATS ON TEACHER APPRECIATION WEEK. IT WAS AMAZING!
ADOPT-A-CLASS
As the year begins to wind down, we would like to give a great big thank you to all who so generously
