Please Take Note - Mark Calendars

The Winter months bring a variety of activities to keep us warm and busy during these cold days and long nights. As we reach the mid-year, please be sure to stay attuned to the ongoings and requests to help with your child's fun and successful school days. While I recognize that Willowwind provides you with a lot of information regarding classroom, school wide, and community wide events please make note of all needs and email at any time with questions or concerns.

I try hard to provide a variety of reminders are about upcoming events in a variety of ways. For your reference please refer to blog postings, the "Upcoming Events" and "Reminders" sections of the website (located on the right side bar of the Welcome page), emails, the website calendar, and your child's weekly Cottontail Communicator for these reminders of needs.

Please make note of the important information in the following blog posts and upcoming blog posts. January, February, March and beyond are going to continue to be busy months.

This blog posting comes on the heels of Friday's field trip. The field trip to Oaknoll was a huge success and it was fun to see old and young come together, but prior to leaving many Kindergarteners were without booster seats worrying me that this critical field trip may not happen after all. Due to the size of our school please be aware of field trip dates and booster seat needs. The only time booster seats are not needed is on our monthly trips to the public library.

In addition,
~ Please be sure your child is prepared for outdoor play. We will go outside as long as the air temps stay above 0 degrees.

~ Please be sure your child has their Take Home Folder, Book Bag (math flashcards and upcoming Weekly Words flashcards included), and 2 snacks (1 snack on Thursday) including utensils each day. These supplies are incredibly important to your child's day-to-day success in Kindergarten.

~ School starts promptly each day at 8:15 am. The classroom opens up at 8:00 am, and BSP is available beginning at 7:30 am.

Thank you for your support an understanding.
