FROM THE PRESIDENT- Diane Roberts 366-1148

March, in like a lion and out like a lamb, isn't that what they say? Anyway, if your children are anything like mine they are itching to get out and play. We will continue to go out everyday that we can so dress your child accordingly.

All returning families and new families should have received an application for enrollment for next year. Please get them in as soon as possible to secure your spot at the preschool.

If you are a returning family please call me for a job for next year. You will not automatically get the same job as this year, so if you want the same job please call ASAP.

Please call if you have any questions or e-mail me at
sdsroberts@aol.com.
 

FROM THE EDUCATONAL DIRECTOR –Shirley Glines 738-9512

  • Registration Update – since fewer than 16 children enrolled in the AM 4’s class for the 2002-2003 school year, a lottery was not necessary. Registration opened to the public on February 15th. If you are a returning family and have not registered your child, please do so immediately.
  • Saturday March 16th I will be reading to children in daycare at the Parenting Conference.
  • The annual business meeting is Tuesday March 19th. As stated in the handbook, each family should be represented at this meeting. The Board of Directors for the next school year will be elected; the Budget will be presented and voted on; the Board will present a vote on a Policy change. In the past families with two children enrolled at the same time were given a discount of half tuition for one of the children. We will present a proposal to change that to a reduction of $25.00 for the second child and any additional child in the family. The business portion will be followed by a review of the curriculum for those who are interested.
  • Field Trip information: The teachers will plan placement of the children in the cars for the trips. A sign-up sheet for volunteer drivers will be placed on the bulletin board. Car seats should be dropped off at school when you drop off your child.
  • Picture Days: Lifetouch will be doing our photographs in March. Feel free to dress your child up those days - we will plan "neat activities." We will need one picture helper on picture day in each class. Watch the bulletin board for a sign-up sheet for this.
  • Please refill the water pitchers after snack.

FROM THE 4’s- Shirley Glines 738-9512

March is going to be a busy, short month. We will focus on the food pyramid to guide us to eat right for good health. This will lead the 4’s to talk about skin care and exercise.

The 4’s parents will notice me spending more time with each child individually in order to do evaluating of specific skills. Kindergarten registration will require you to schedule a Child Find Evaluation for your child. We do not provide this service so you will need to schedule it at your child’s Kindergarten school. Following registration, you may hear your child expressing fears about leaving Mrs. Glines. Let them know this is not happening immediately. These comments are normal. Visit the outside play area of your Kindergarten school often. This will help your child feel more comfortable in September at their new school. Call me with questions regarding your child or you may e-mail me at shglines@aol.com.

FROM THE 3’s- Karen Peterson 322-5340

March will be an exciting month for the 3’s. We start the month with group and individual pictures being taken on March 19th. There will be "neat" activities on that day, so children can dress up as much as they want to.

March will be our food month. We will talk about the food pyramid and take a field trip to Pathmark on March 21st. We will finish the month talking about all the changes Spring brings. We will end the month with our Spring Party on the 28th. School will be closed from 3/29 thru 4/7 for spring break.
