Whether you are traveling or staying in town, I hope you enjoy a happy and healthy April break. We will see you when we return on 4/22.

Best wishes,

Julie Martin

We will hold spring family/teacher conferences on May 15 and May 17. This is an opportunity to talk with your child's teacher about their progress and growth since starting school. Each teacher will share a sign up, and you are encouraged to attend these conferences in person.

SAVE THE DATE! Daniel Feeney Preschool will host its first EVER preschool DANCE on Friday, May 17 from 4:30-6:30. Pizza and snacks will be provided so no need to plan for dinner! The whole family is invited to this fun end of the year event! Dress casual or dress fancy, it's up to you!

Lifetouch will be at DFP on May 7 for pictures. If you would like your child's picture taken please contact your child's teacher. Information to sign up will be sent home soon.

We always welcome paper towels and tissues this time of year as spring allergy season arrives! We are grateful for your generosity, thank you.

We will hold peer screening for all of our NEW students on Wednesday, May 1. If your child is currently a student at DFP, you do not need to bring your child to this screening.
