Learning Tip📝
Support your child’s learning at home by repeating the kinds of activities your child enjoys at school and make playtime meaningful!
Incorporating centers at home...
Making play meaningful...
Social Emotional Learning😊
Do you struggle with stressful mornings? Do you often leave the house in an angry, frantic rush? Mornings can be a particularly challenging time for parents. Getting your entire family up and out the door is no easy task! It is important to understand that your morning routine serves as the foundation for your family’s entire day. Young children thrive on predictability and learn from repetition. It is important to establish not only a morning routine, but a bedtime routine, that you and your child both understand and helps everyone to feel calm and relaxed. See more below!
Nursing Note💉
Reminder: Required immunizations or exemption letters must be submitted by November 30th to avoid exclusion! See below for additional information and resources!
