We have rolled into August already! It has now been a month since your child made the transition into their new classroom. We are very excited to see how everyone has adjusted so well. Evidence of Learning is everywhere, the children are exploring new things, the garden is looking great, and the teachers are enjoying their new class.
Thank you to everyone who donated school supplies to our Fill the Backpacks Drive! We love giving back to the community and appreciate your efforts in helping us teach your little ones about the importance of giving back.
Links to Learning is in Action! Here at Merryhill, we love to take pictures of the children exploring and learning. Please be sure to check your email for our daily pictures the teachers send out.
Sincerely, Stephanie Gill/Principal
Dates to remember in August:
August 4 – Free Demo day-Amazing Athletes
August 12 – School closed- Professional Development Day for our teachers
August 18 – first session for Amazing Athletes for those signed-up for the class
August 19 – first session for Soccer Shots for those signed-up for the class
August 23 – “The Lizard Lady” show at 9:30am
**Save the date**September 9th Grandparents Day celebrations
The Lizard Lady– the children will get to learn about different reptiles, such as non-venomous snakes, blue anole lizards and tortoises. They will also get to feel each reptile to see what their textures are like.
Reminders *We are a nut-free school. Please make sure your child is not bringing any snacks to school that contain nuts. If we come across any snacks that do contain nuts in them, that were brought from home, they will be thrown away. We have a handful of children that are severely allergic to nuts, and we want to make sure we are taking all precautions when it comes to health and children’s well-beings.
*Tuition is due each week. A late fee of $25 will be charged to your account if payment has not been made by Tuesday evening of each week and your child’s enrollment will be jeopardized if it continues.
*Please remember to check your child in and out each day of school, using the IPad at the front desk.
*Please do not hold the front door open for anyone behind you, when entering or leaving the building. To ensure we are all keeping our children in the safest environment possible, please allow each family to enter their own door code to enter the building. If a family doesn’t remember their door code, please ring the doorbell and ask us for a new door code
