Hello ELC Families,

I truly can’t believe that we made it; we are in our last month of school for the 2024/2025 school year! A big thank you to all the families that were able to join us on the field trip. Please help us celebrate our amazing teachers. Teacher appreciation week is the second week of May. We would like to provide a potluck lunch for the staff on Friday, May 9th. If you would like to participate, please drop off food in the office by 12:00. Also, teachers will have posters outside their classrooms with a few of their favorite things. If you are unable to participate in the potluck but still want to get something special for your child’s teacher you can get ideas from these posters.

Did you know that May is Better Hearing and Speech month! It is an opportunity to help raise awareness about how speech/language pathologists (SLPs) help adults and children in areas such as communication, swallowing and more. Audiologists help adults and children with balance and hearing health.

Does your child neeed a physical (well child visit) for the upcoming school year?

Kids First Health Care here at Gregory Hill offers well child care including physicals, call to make an appointment at (303) 428-4384. We accept Medicaid, CHP+, most private insurances, and uninsured patients.

Attendance

Although some absences are unavoidable, it is important that students attend school as often as possible. Preschool is a great time to start building a habit of good attendance. Please note that we are allowing days for students to be absent for illness and do not want families to send children to school sick. Students are asked to stay home if they are experiencing any cold/flu like symptoms.
