3daypreschool – 3 Day Preschool

3 Day Preschool 1/21/20

Dear Families,

Thank you for your understanding this week as we all faced snow challenges, school delays, and modifications to our routine!

We had a wonderful Open House Thursday evening with many new families inquiring about our school. Thank you to our amazing parent volunteers who assisted with the evening.

We look forward to meeting with you during conference week. You can expect your date and time confirmation by Monday, January 27th.

Due to our shortened days last week, we were unable to complete some of our curriculum. Therefore, next week will include the following:

Language Arts: We will finish the letter Kk activity

Religion: The children will hear the story The Holy Family Goes to Egypt. This story teaches that God is always watching over us and taking care of and protecting us. We will thank God for his protection.

All school Mass on Sunday, January 26^th at 10:30am, and an all school open house will follow. This would be a great opportunity to visit Kindergarten and the main school!
Preschool conferences January 29^th, 30^th and 31^st.
