Parent Videos & Photos
If you are video-taping or taking pictures at our school they must be only of your child. Please do not post videos or pictures of other children as it is a violation of their privacy. If you have accidentally posted pictures or videos of other children, please remove them immediately. Thank you for your cooperation in this matter.
Nut-free School
We have a nut-free policy at our school. Please keep all peanut items at home. We have children with severe allergies.
Medication and Sunscreen Policy Reminder
Just a friendly reminder that our medication policy states that we can only administer medicine that has been prescribed by a doctor. We cannot administer over the counter medication without a doctor’s note with explicit instructions on how to administer it.
Regarding sunscreen, if you would like your child’s teacher to apply sunscreen throughout the summer months, please complete the “Sunscreen Authorization Form” located in the front office. We ask that you bring your child in their own sunscreen and apply a coat of sunscreen before they come to school. All sunscreen will be applied after nap unless noted differently by a parent.
October 2021
Dear Families,
Welcome October. Every season has elements that I love but fall is my absolute favorite. Not only is the weather getting cooler and there are so many beautiful changes, but we have so many great events planned. We are planning fun fall-themed activities for our students for October and November. We will share photos with you through Links2Home. As always, please reach out if you have any questions or concerns.
Sincerely,
Ms. Darice Johnson, Principal

Parent/Teachers Conferences
We will see you in November for our next parent teacher conferences.
Part of the conference will highlight an important subject which parenting styles. We highly recommend that parents be on the same parenting style recommended. In this website, parents can take a quiz to find out their parenting style. The website also make recommendations to parenting workshops if needed. This is a great resource.
In our last parent/teacher conference we discuss the CDC developmental milestones for children. I have included the link again because it has some great resources.
Please let us know if you need a parent/teacher conference if you have any concerns throughout the year.
