Dearest families,
This month is very busy with the Spring Show this Friday, May 3, 2019, our Butterfly release party on May 6th @ 3:30, Teacher Appreciation week starting May 6th, parent/teacher conferences starting May 10th, and the Pre-Kindergarten graduation on May 30th @ 3:30. We have all had an amazing school year! We have learned so much from our teachers and our Links to Learning curriculum. We look forward to meeting new friends in the new school year and strengthening our friendships with the old. We will miss our Pre-K students and families so much, but we know that they are completely ready for their next learning adventure in Kindergarten.
We want to thank you again for all your love and kindness this school year. It has been our pleasure getting to know each and every one of you, and the extended family members who helped with drop off and pick up. Let’s soak in the love and enjoy the last 4 ½ weeks together before we move up to the next classroom adventures.
Please check out the upcoming events below so you do not miss out on the fun or school closure dates.
For our graduating Pre-K students, do you know where you are going to send your child for the summer? Merryhill Elementary has a great summer camp program for you!
For those children who are graduating to Kindergarten in the new school year, visit the Elementary front office for information on how to reserve your spot for the new school year! Contact the Elementary Principal for more details. Her name is Karen Cooper. Contact number: 408-254-1282, email: karen.cooper@nlcinc.com.

Parent Referral Program:
If there’s one thing parents love to do, it’s talk about their children’s successes.
When friends ask you about your child’s experiences at Merryhill School, what type of success stories do you share? Do you mention the personal and educational discoveries your child is making thanks to our advanced curriculum? Do you talk about the new levels of self and social confidence your child has gained thanks to our encouraging atmosphere?
*For every new child you refer who enrolls at our school for three months, you’ll receive one FREE week of tuition for your child*.
It’s our way of saying thanks for doing what comes naturally – singing the praises of your child and sharing your experiences with the Merryhill School difference!!
