Little Blessings Academy Before/After School Care

A lot of you have been asking about next year and whether or not a full day option will be available for preschool. Unfortunately, it will not be. However, we are planning to work with Little Blessings Academy to provide before/after school care. Please see the following flyer for more information. Registration for next year will begin in January.

There will be conversation, video, scripture, and reflection. This is directed to all parents. The video portion is available at http://www.stfrancisparish.net/Other/Videos/Videos.html. However, that is not the whole story. You are welcome to come join us. Contact Theresa DeMers for more information: 345-9874 ext. 210 or tdemers@stfrancisparish.net.

Thanksgiving Celebration!

Each class will prepare a couple of songs to perform for their parents and anyone else who would like to attend. We are asking that parents volunteer to bring in snacks and juice to share with everyone. The sign up sheet will be outside our classroom door. Thank you so much for helping out. We wouldn’t be able to do everything we do without you!!

Friday's Newsletter

Here is this week's newsletter - November 6, 2009

If you have not turned in your conference form, please do so as soon as possible. I will be getting back to those of you who turned them in by Wednesday of next week, if not sooner. Please look for an email coming your way. :)

As the weather continues to get cooler, I would like to remind you to please send your little ones with hats, gloves, etc. Our playground is in the shade most of the day, so it tends to be a couple of degrees cooler back there than out in the sun.

Progress reports will be sent home on Monday and Tuesday!

I hope you have a wonderful weekend.
