PreK Field Trip
On
Wednesday, April 24, the PreK only will be going on a field
trip to “You Are the Potter”, on Madison Ave near the mall.
While
they are there, they will be making a special Mother’s Day gift. We will need
several volunteers to help chaperone this trip; there will be room for a couple
of parents to ride the bus with the students, but others may meet us there (due to liability issues, you may not follow
the bus there but you can meet us there at 10:30).
If
you are planning to attend, please let Mrs. Parker know as soon as possible.
Please understand that if you commit to going, we are counting on you to be there, as children will be assigned
to you for supervision.
Students
will need to wear their Children of Hope T-shirts on that day. Each child must have a signed permission slip
turned in to the office or they will not be able to attend.
In
addition, each child must have a
car seat or booster seat in order to ride on the bus. On the day of the field
trip, parents or guardians will be asked to remove the child’s car seat from
their own car and install it on the bus themselves.
A
permission slip will come home next week and need to be returned by Wednesday,
April 17.
If
you have any questions or concerns about this field trip, please come by the
office after you have dropped off your child, or call us at 888-HOPE
(888-4673).
PreK Graduation
Just
a reminder that the PreK Graduation will be held on Thursday, May 16 at 1:00.
All PreK families are invited to join us for this celebration. (Just a note: this
graduation is for PreK Students only — the K4 students will have their
graduation next year, after completing PreK)
Calling All PreK Parents!
Have
you checked with your child’s elementary school about Kindergarten
registration?
Please
see below for information on Kindergarten Registration, as
well as a list of what to take with you in order to enroll your child.
If
you are unsure which elementary school your child will attend, please see us in
the office and we will be more than happy to help you figure it out!
PLEASE NOTE: You MUST enroll your child in order for him or
her to attend Kindergarten.
Enrolling for Next Year
It’s time to register for next year! Information
came home a few weeks ago about enrollment for the fall. Be sure to register
soon to hold your child’s spot for next year. If your child will be graduating
from COH this year, feel free to refer a friend or family member to COH.
Please see Mrs. Bonson in the office if you have
any questions, or if you need an application or information to refer a friend!
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.
