"Early childhood education is the foundation upon which future success is built, nurturing young minds and fostering a love for learning."

Hello September!

I hope everyone had a fantastic Labor Day weekend! We were excited to welcome our students back yesterday. All of our students are beginning to get into the flow of the school routine. We want to thank you for your partnership in supporting this!

For the next 2 weeks, all classes are participating in a program wide theme - Ice Cream! Students will be learning and exploring various standards through ice cream related books, songs, and activities. The unit will end in an Ice Cream party! Read through our Teacher Newsletters for more details.

Talking Points

One of our main forms of 2-way communication will be with the App: Talking Points. This allows families and teachers to communicate back and forth directly in the app or through individual or group messaging.

****After October 2026, Talking Points will no longer text directly to phone numbers. Families will need to download the app in order to continue to receive notifications from the school****

MHS Volunteers

We are excited to welcome two Madeira High School students and their job coach to our preschool family on Wednesday mornings for a weekly work-study volunteer hour! They will be joining our classrooms to observe and gain hands-on experience to learn the key job requirements for working with young children.

Tuition Payments

September Tuition was due last week. Thank you to those that have paid! If you have not done so already, please take care of that as soon as possible.

For families wishing to pay tuition online, here is a Quick Start Guide. In order to create an account, you will need your child's Student ID number. (Note: Pay Schools for school lunch is governed by a different entity; for those with Pay Schools accounts for school lunches for older children, you will need to create a different account with a different email for preschool tuition)

We have a new procedure this year involving the playground after school. We will be using it for our students who are waiting to ride the bus to MES for the Champions program. It will be closed to other children at that time. Thank you for your understanding!

PTO

We’re excited to kick off a new school year with our first Madeira City Schools PTO meeting!

Wednesday, September 9

7:00 PM

Madeira High School Library

Whether you’re a longtime PTO volunteer or completely new to getting involved, we’d love to have you! Parents, grandparents, staff and community members are all welcome.

Immunization Records and Physical Forms

Ohio State Preschool Licensing Rules were updated over the summer.

As of this school year, Preschool Families are no longer required to provide the Ohio Child Medical Physical Form! The only thing we need from your child's Pediatrician is his / her Immunization Record!

We will still need a new record each year, but no longer need the long form signed by the Physician. A printed copy from the online portal will suffice!

Thank you so much to families who already have this turned in!
