Dear Pre-K Families, Dear Pre-K Families,

The 2025-2026 school year is upon us and we are so excited to meet your littles and your families! This newsletter page will be updated weekly with generic information for our grade level. If there are any specific things about your child’s classroom, you will receive emails directly from their teacher. We are looking forward to having a fabulous school year!

Love,

Ms. Cottingham & Ms. Dalton

You're invited to enjoy a cool treat with our Pre-K teachers and teaching assistants on August 11th from 11:00 to 11:30 AM on the blacktop near the small playground and bus loop. While classroom assignments won’t be shared just yet, this is a wonderful chance for your child to meet fellow Pre-K students and for families to connect.


*Please let us know ASAP if your child has a specific allergy so that we can accommodate with appropriate popsicles*
