Hello to everyone who is coming to our class!
We are so very excited to reunite with our year two students from our 2016-2017 school year and also super excited to meet our new year one friends! We hope everyone had a safe and fun summer full of beautiful memories and lots of laughter. Time to continue the fun at school!
For those of you who don't know us we are Mrs. Latus and Ms. Flor. We have been a part of the Kinderteam at St. Matthew C.S since Full Day started. We love working with your little ones and seeing them learn and explore. Here we are during some of our summer fun:
Some reminders for the start of the school year.
*Our school times have changed this year and we will now begin our days at8:35-3:10.
*Entry/Dismissal:Due to the large number of Kindergarten students, we ask thatparents/caregivers DONOT enter the fenced area. Your child will line up and then enter the school atthe 8:35 am entry bell at the Kindergarten natural playground areabefore school. Staff will be in that yard 20 minutes before the school bell (we ask that you wait for a staff member to be presentbefore allowing your child in).
*There will be many handouts going home over thefirst few weeks of school. Please send them back promptly and tryyour best to keep up with them.
*You will need to send two snacks and a lunch to school. Please ensureeverything is peanut free and safe for all students. Please note thatno WOW Butter is allowed in our school. We also encourage you to practice opening and closing containers and backpacks before comingto school in order to encourage independence during eating times andother transitions. Please also ensure that the backpack is large enough to carry large books, lunch bags and other items. We know thereare many small cute bags out there but we promise a bigger backpackis a great school tool.
*Please send an extra pair of clothes in a larger Ziploc bag (underwear,shirt, pants, socks etc) just in case of any accidents. Doing so willallow for us to get your child nice and tidy without contacting youat work to come to school. We also would like for all students tohave indoor RUNNING shoes in their cubbies at all times during theyear.
*Please practice doing up zippers, buttons and putting shoes on and offbefore the start of the school year with your child. We will gladly help them but keep in mind there are over 25 students in the classand only two of us.
*Please pardon combined words seems to be a temporary glitch in system*
See you soon!
