Week of May 16-20, 2022

Dear Parents,

Welcome to the last full week of PreK 4 for the 2022 school year.  
So hard to believe that we are almost through our PreK 4 journey.  What a wonderful adventure it has been!

Your wee learners will continue to engage in PreK skill activities throughout the last few weeks of school.  We will play number and letter games, enhance our fine and gross motor development, expand our vocabulary through song, story and rhyme presentations.  Oh, and we will have fun, fun, fun, too!

Classroom Notes:
We are a peanut, tree nut and macadamia nut-free classroom.  Please do not send in any food with the presence of these allergens or the possible contact with these allergens in the production of the food items.  Contact me before sending in any birthday treats.  Thank you!

Progress reports will be distributed at the end of the school year.

End of Year Show Information:
The children will present a wonderful show of poem and song to put smiles on the faces of our families as we say good-bye to a fun year of learning, discovery, faith and friendship.  

Please join us at 10:00 a.m. on June 1st in O'Brien Hall.  

Our PreK 4A class will be performing on the left side of the stage if looking from the audience.  

We ask that the children wear comfortable, colorful, summer clothing for the performance.  

Light refreshments will follow the performance.  Thank you Homeroom Moms for organizing our refreshments for the celebration!

PLEASE NOTE:  A parent or caregiver must be present for the PreK 4 show and celebration.  At least one parent or caregiver is expected to remain with your child until the class is dismissed with me from the celebration and back to the school.  We aim to finish the celebration around 11:15 a.m.  

* If you plan to dismiss your child with you after the performance, please inform me by email.  

* The last day of Pre-K 4 for the 3 and 4-day friends will be Thursday, June 2nd.

* The last day for the Pre-K 4 5-day friends will be June 3rd.

If for some reason you do not expect your child to be present on his or her last day of school, please inform me so I may be sure that your child receives all their end of year materials.  Thank you!

As the weather becomes warmer, we will take to the great outdoors more often. Please be mindful that your child is comfortably dressed, supportive shoes are on feet (please no flip-flops), plenty of water is packed and sunscreen applied before school as needed.  

Please do not send your child to school if he or she is experiencing fever, aches, tummy upset or continuous runny nose/cough.  We would like to always keep our little ones and staff as healthy as we can, especially heading into the last weeks of school and the start of the summer break.   
Thank you for your consideration!

Feel free to contact me with any questions or concerns.

Enjoy a wonderful week,
Kaky Mullen
