January 2026
We hope you all had a very Happy New Year and a healthy Christmas break. Welcome back to a new year of fun-filled excitement. We would like to start off by saying thank you to everyone that gave us a card, gift, or just a warm Christmas hug. We love you all. January is progress report time for Preschool. We will be testing the children during the next few weeks and by the end of the month, we will have the reports ready for you. These reports reflect how your child has adjusted to school, what they have learned here in this classroom, as well as how he/she responds to the other children and teachers.
Next, please remember to send in sneakers with your child in their backpack if they choose to wear boots to school. Boots become very warm all day long for little feet. Also, remember to make sure your child has a winter hat and mittens (snow pants/suits required as needed) as we will go outside when the temps allow. Thank you for your help with this.
Finally, we would like to remind you to check the FACTS calendar, check updates on Class Dojo, and check my web page for all events happening in and around the classroom. This will allow your child to be prepared for any special events that are coming up.
