Summer School Post June18-July 13, 2018

Hello Families,

We are at the half way mark on summer school.  The children are enjoying their change in schedule with the minimum days and our swim days on Tuesdays and Thursdays!  Everyone has done a great job with the new transitions and activities!

Wednesday our field trip to the park was really fun and our speech and APE coach joined us to work on generalizing skills in the community!

Just a reminder that next week Wednesday, July 4th, is a holiday and there will be no school that day.  We will be in session the other 4 days next week.

I will post again at the end of summer school with information regarding the fall semester!

Thank you and many blessings to you and your family!

Donna

News for the Last Week of School, June 4, 2018

Hello Families,

Yes this is it!  The last week of the regular school year.

This week on Wednesday June 6, we have our end of the year awards ceremony.  Our class is slotted for 12noon-12:45.  Refreshments will be served following the ceremony.  You are free to take your child home afterward if you wish.  It is a regular dismissal time of 2pm.

Thursday, June 7, is a minimum day and the last day of school.

There will be no school Friday June 8th thru June 17th.

Summer school is Monday June 18 thru July 13.  Every day is short day schedule.  School begins at 8am and ends at 12 noon.

Look through your child's backpack and communication log for more details on things that they will need for swimming.

There is no homework over the summer.  I will be thinking about homework for the fall semester.

Thank you all for a wonderful year!  Hope to see you Wednesday for our awards ceremony!

Blessings,

News for the Week of April 23, 2018

Hello Families,

Our time is flying!  There are only 7 weeks of school left of the regular school year! Please check your child's backpack and communication logs for important information and updates on schedules and special events.

Last week I sent home permission slips for our field trip to the Chino Youth Museum coming up on Thursday May 3rd.  Please sign, date and return those permission slips with $4 for your child's admission into the museum, as soon as possible.

We will be going to Amy's Farm in Chino Tuesday, May 29 the day after Memorial Day weekend.  (Permission slips will be sent home later in May).

State testing is also in May.  Only a couple of the students in my class are going to be testing due to grade level.  I will notify those individually.  If you have not been contacted then your child is not testing.  Even if your child is not testing, please continue to help your child excel in school by getting enough sleep and eating a healthy diet and keep up with attendance.

Please check your child's clothing size...Many of our students have had a growth spurt and we are finding that the spare clothes in their cubbies are too small.  We will be sending the small clothing home for a trade out.  Please keep in mind the change in the weather as well.

Turn taking, sharing, cooperative play, counting, learning colors....all happening in one activity! 

In conclusion, this week's menu is cycle 4.  Details are listed under the School Menu Cycles label.

Thank you and have a blessed week!

Donna :)
