Happy Holidays - see you in 2025!

From all of us at DFP, we wish you and your loved ones a healthy and joyful holiday season. I wrote to staff that I count myself blessed to work with such an incredible team of educators and the same is true for our relationship with you. As the saying goes, it takes a village and I am grateful. It has been humbling to watch the growth of your children and we are excited for what 2025 will bring. Enjoy this time with your children, it passes by too fast.

Warmest wishes,

Julie and all of us at DFP

Thank you!

A heartfelt thank you for your generosity this week from coffee to breakfast to lunch - the staff feels the love! A special thanks to Christine Jolley and Trinh Lucas for coordinating the efforts. We appreciate your thoughtfulness during such a busy time of year!

A Reminder about Winter Clothing

As the temperatures get colder, a reminder to please make sure all clothing is labeled: coats, hats, and mittens. It is best to dress your children in layers since the building can get very warm inside. Also be sure your children are wearing safe and functional footwear (sneakers, snow boots, rubber soled shoes).

Please Take Note of this Information re: Kindergarten Registration
