Parent Connection
Children's Garden

Event Information
Come and talk to other parent's from our preschool, hear about the upcoming events, and how you can help!
I might say this in every newsletter, but hard to believe we are in October! We have Fall in the halls, a field trip for our 4-year-olds to the Fire Station, our first Parent Link meeting of the year next week, and we end the month with a Halloween Parade!
I am placing a bin of kids books in the hallways for the morning drop off, should you need one to read with your child while you wait for the doors to open at 9am. We share the building with 'the big kids' upstairs and we appreciate everyone's efforts to keep the hallway a quiet place.
We hope that you are able to join us next Wednesday at 5pm for our first Parent Link (PTO) meeting. We will talk about all the events that we will have this year and how you can be of help.
See you at the doors,
Mrs. Klein
