Birthday Party for Jesus
Thank you so much for all of you who were able to join us for our Christmas Program and our Birthday Party for Jesus. We pray that you had a wonderful Christmas Break, and we look forward to spending this new year with you at Children of Hope Preschool.
Thanks, Parents!
Thank you so much for your continued willingness to walk your child to class each morning. We know since the weather has turned colder, it isn’t as fun to get out of your dry and toasty car, but it will still be necessary and it is a great way to connect with your child’s teacher.
Just a suggestion: a way to allow your little ones to stay in the warm car while you bring in your older child is to take turns with another parent, either watching the little ones in the parking lot, or bringing in the children.
If you have any questions or concerns, please come by the office after you have dropped off your child, call us at 888-HOPE (4673), or email us anytime at childrenofhopepreschool@gmail.com
When Your Child is Ill
Your child should be healthy when you bring him to school. If your child is ill, please keep him home; and please be mindful that your child needs to be fever-free for 24 hours without fever-reducing medication before he may return to school. Everyone involved in the program will appreciate this.
Also, if your child won’t be coming in, please give us a call at 888-HOPE (888-4673) to let us know.
If a child becomes sick while at school, he will be kept isolated from the other children and the guardian will be expected to pick up the child immediately. Please be sure the preschool office has updated contact information to reach you quickly if the need arises.
In addition, if your child has been exposed to or contracts a contagious disease (such as Hand, Foot & Mouth Disease, or Fifth’s Disease), please notify the director as soon as possible so that she may alert other families whose children may have been exposed. Please consult your physician and the director as to when your child may return to school.
Take What You Need
We continue to have the opportunity to bless one another. If you have clothing or toys which your children have outgrown, please feel free to bring them in on Tuesday for other families to take as needed. On the flip side, if you see anything that would work well for your child, please take it home. You DO NOT need to donate anything in order to take what you need.
As you have items you would like to share, please bring them in on a Tuesday. However, anything left on Thursday after everyone has been picked up will go to a nearby shelter; it will not be kept for the following week.
Subs Needed
We are in need of some substitute teachers for this school year! If you are willing to come in to aide in a classroom for a day, please let Mrs. Bonson know ASAP.
2013-3014 Registration
We will begin registration for next year very soon. Please be looking for information to come home in your child’s mailbox!
