Weekday Preschool Newsletter June 2006

Each month you will receive a newsletter from me giving you any details or information that will be helpful to know for the month ahead. The monthly calendar is attached to the newsletter and you can hang it up on your refigerator so you can see what we have planned for each preschool day your child attends.

Registration Form: If your child has not attended Westminster Preschool during the 2005-2006 schoolyear, we must have their completed (both sides) registration form on file BEFORE they may attend preschool. You may bring it with you on the first day of your child attends summer preschool, or you can drop it by or mail it to Westminster. NO child is allowed to remain in preschool unless we have this form completed and on file. (Note: If your child attended during the schoolyear, we will just continue to use the form we already have on file.

Sign In/Out Book: Each day when you bring your child into the classroom you need to sign them in to document who is bringing and picking up your child. There is a book for preschool class and a separate book for extended care hours. If you use the "drop-off" service, the teachers will sign your child in for you.

Drop-Off Service: We offer a ‘drop-off" service for parents when they bring their child each day at 9:00 am or 12:30 pm. It is offered as a convenience for parents. A teacher will be waiting inside the north outside door and will come out to your car and get your child and walk them into the building. Another teacher will be standing at the top of the stairs to sign them in and make sure they enter the upstairs classroom safely.

We enjoy having parents bring their child into the classroom, but realize with infants and other siblings or home daycare children, it is difficult and sometimes even unsafe to try to bring them all into the building.

Parents will still need to come into the classroom to pick them up and to sign them out each day.
