A Note from Our Principal
Dear Families,
Thank you families in participating in our Trunk or Treat event in October. We had many creative families who joined the fun! The children also had many positive experiences learning about Fire Safety, and the Pre-K students had the opportunity to visit our local Fire Station! This month, we will embark on a journey of fostering connections and celebrating cherished family traditions, as we nurture the spirit of Thanksgiving and togetherness. Our preschoolers will be engaged in activities that inspire gratitude and kindness, such as creating festive crafts, sharing personal experiences, and learning about the importance of giving back to our community.
Thank you for entrusting us with the care and education of your children. We look forward to another month of joy and learning!
Sincerely,
Karina Medina
Tom Turkey
Tom Turkey needs to go undercover. Please disguise him so he won’t get eaten up for Thanksgiving. All Turkeys will be sent home on Friday, November 3rd. This is a great opportunity to work with your child and create another character. We look forward to seeing all the creative ideas.
Fancy Friendship Feast
Get your fancy attire and get ready for a feast. The children will set the tables and make center pieces for their fancy lunch. They will have an opportunity to share what they are thankful for and talk about their family tradition. We look forward to seeing your fancy attire!
