Calendar Update for Next Year!

Please note that the dates for Spring Break 2015 have changed! The JCPS School Board voted Monday night to move Spring Break to a week later (the week of April 6th).  We are moving ours, as well, and have made that change on the Parent Calendar on the web site. 

New Spring Break Dates: Friday, April 3 - Sunday, April 12

Reminder

Our main carpool pickup is at the end of our Preschool day: from 11:45 a.m. until noon. We depend upon parents, grandparents, and babysitters arriving on time so our teachers and office staff can then get to the next place they need to be. We understand that the construction near the Preschool can be a bother, and we also know that sometimes things just happen; however, we will begin charging a late fee of $1 for every minute past 12:00.  Due to the number of tardy pick-ups lately, we feel this is necessary.
From Renee

Thank you to all Moms who came to our Muffins with Moms!  Thank you for all that you do for our Preschool!

 

We wanted to remind everyone that Wednesday, May 28 is the last day of school. All children that typically dismiss at 11:45 a.m. will have their usual dismissal time. Everyone else will dismiss at 12:45 p.m. carpool. Our teachers will need time to prepare the building for summer camp which begins the following week, on June 2.

GOT DIRT? 
Then make sure to bring your cars, trucks, and

Conestoga wagons to the Wendy's at 4955 Old Brownsboro Road this Saturday for the annual Student Council sponsored car-wash! The 8th Grade Class of 2014 needs to raise money for their class gift (to be announced at the end of the year), and this is one of their main fundraisers. We hope the weather will "behave" for us as we will be working hard from 11:00 a.m. until 3:00 p.m. Tell a friend and come on by!

   

Please be sure to sign in whenever you visit the Preschool, or when dropping off or picking up your child during non-carpool times.
