Parent Newsletter

How can it be December already? I feel like we just started preschool. December is another one of those quick months around here. Just a few reminders for this month:

December 5 ~ Tuition is due
December 8 ~ Grinch day
December 17 ~ Happy Birthday Jesus party
December 19 ~ Pajama Day
Christmas Preschool break is from December 22 through January 5.
Preschool restarts on January 6.
Tuition envelopes will be sent home once we return from break in January. Tuition in January will be due January 9, 2026.

Winter weather will be here before we know it. If preschool closes due to inclement weather, we will post on dojo. It will also be posted on the local news channels. We generally follow Beavercreek schools, but sometimes they will post a delay that is more of a bussing issue, and we will not have a delay. So please make sure you check dojo on those mornings. If we do follow a delay, we only delay 1 hr.
I hope you all have a wonderful Christmas and share the true meaning of
the holiday.
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

Hello parents.
     We are continuing to work on our letters, numbers and shapes. We have also been working with scissors.
     The kids love the sensory bins that I have for them. The kids are doing so well on tracing. They have improved so much.
     On December 19th we will have pajama day.
     Our Christmas break is Dec 22-Jan 6.
     If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to reach out to me on
Class Dojo.
Mrs. Heatherly

Miss Schroders Middlers
Merry Christmas!!!!
     December is busy, busy, busy. We start off the month continuing with our letters C and numbers 0-10.
     For our Grinch Day party, we will be eating green colored popcorn with mini marshmallows and M&M's in it and making a craft, they do not need to bring a snack if you don’t want to.
     For our Happy Birthday Jesus Party watch for the sign-up sheet; again they do not need to bring a snack this day as well.
     Christmas Break begins Monday, December 22 and we return Tuesday, January 6 & Wednesday, January 7, 2026.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!!!
Miss. Schroder

Ms. Nowak and Mrs. Clark Pre-K

This month is going to be short and BUSY! To start the month, we will be having a Grinch Day on Monday, December 8th with all things Grinch (wear your best Grinch attire!)!
We will have our Happy Birthday Jesus/Christmas Party on Wednesday, December 17th. Friday, December 19th will be Pajama/Movie Day. Please keep an eye on Class Dojo for additional details on all events.

So far, we have been relatively healthy in the classroom. This is great to see! Let’s keep this streak going; however, if the kiddos do start showing any sign of sickness, please be considerate of the other students and staff and keep them home.
This will help keep our classroom healthier, thus the kids will be
staying healthier.
December is going to be quick and busy. Please keep working with the kids on what we are learning in the classroom. You working with them at home is really where things start to stick with the kids.
Christmas Break is Monday, 12/2 – Monday, 01/05 (school resuming on Tuesday, 01/06).
Please do not hesitate to reach out if you have any questions or concerns. We are always here for you and the kids.
Thank you!

Parent Newsletter November 2025

The first few months of preschool go by so quickly. It is hard to believe we are in November already.

Just a few reminders for the month:

Daylight savings time is November 2nd, make sure to adjust any clocks back 1 hour.
Tuition is due Wednesday, November 5th. If you haven’t paid your supply fee, please do so at this time.
Charlie Brown Thanksgiving is scheduled for Wednesday, November 19th at 11:15 am.
We play the Charlie Brown Thanksgiving movie and serve up popcorn, jellybeans, “french toast” and pretzels just like in the movie!
Thanksgiving Break is scheduled for November 24th ~ 28th.
Thank you to the dudes and dudettes who attended donuts with dudes. The donuts were purchased from Stan the Donut Man

On a side note, I will be heading out of town on November 14th -17th. If any issues arise, please speak with Ms. Nowak or email me.

I would like to thank all those families that supported us with our Chipotle fundraiser; we made just over $70.

God Bless,

Hello Parents,

We are continuing to work on our letters, numbers, and shapes. The kids are loving the sensory bins I have for them. Our Charlie Brown Thanksgiving is November 19.
Thanksgiving break is November 24-28. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to reach out to me in ClassDojo.

Sincerely,
Mrs. Heatherly

Miss Schroder's Middlers

Already in November,

Well we are continuing with our letters P, N, & K as well as the numbers 8, 9, &10.

We will continue practicing with scissors and painting.

Charlie Brown Thanksgiving is Wednesday, November 19 @ 11:15 am in the Fellowship Hall. Snacks and drinks provided.

Thanksgiving Break is Monday, November 24 thru Friday, November 28.

We will return on Monday, December 1.

Thank you and God Bless,
Miss. Schroder

Ms. Nowak and Mrs. Clark's Pre-K

Hard to believe we are already talking about November and the start of the holidays, but here we are!
I am really excited about this month. We have it packed full of fun activities for the kids. The first up is Operation Christmas Child. Our class will be collecting items to put into shoeboxes (more information on this will come out soon!).

Mid-month, we will be having a Charlie Brown Thanksgiving Feast with our parents here at the school. This takes us right into Thanksgiving break. So as you can tell, we will have an action-packed month.

Please keep working with the kids on what we are learning in class. We move at a fast pace, which does require a certain level of independent work on the kids’ behalf. Several kids lack self-confidence when it comes to table work.

Keep bringing in coats and jackets for the kids. While we have nice days, I want to keep getting them outside as much as possible. We do have little kid rakes in the shed outside that the kids enjoy playing with, so I can’t wait to see them create leaf piles and jump into them during our outside play time.

Keep looking at Class Dojo for more details and updates as they come.
You all are great at communicating with me when needed, and I greatly appreciate that and all of you. Please, let me know if there is anything you need from me!

With Thanks,
Ms. Nowak and Mrs. Clark

October 2025

9/24/2025

October around the preschool is so much fun! This is my absolute favorite time of year when the leaves change colors and everything is about pumpkins. We have a busy month ahead! Here are a few reminders:

Tuition is due Friday, October 3rd. If you haven’t submitted your $60 supply fee, please do so this month.
No School on Monday, October 13 (Indigenous Peoples Day)
Picture day is scheduled for Monday, October 20th. Forms will be sent home when we get closer to that date.
Donuts with dudes (or dudettes) is scheduled for Wednesday, October 22nd at 11:30 am. We ask that each child has one adult to join them. We will meet in the fellowship hall to enjoy donuts together.
Fall festival is scheduled for Monday, October 27th. We set up games and activities in the fellowship hall for the children. We do usually ask for parent volunteers to help with the activities. So please be on the lookout for that opportunity.

Since we are a Christian preschool, we do not celebrate Halloween. But on the week of the 27th we have a spirit week.

Monday, October 27th- Fall themed clothes
Tuesday, October 28th- Crazy outfit day
Wednesday, October 29th- PJ day
Thursday, October 30th – Hero day

Hello Parents:
     We have been learning the letters A, B and C the past few weeks. We are practicing holding a pencil and tracing lines. We are also working with scissors and making sure we are using them correctly. The weather will be changing soon. We will be doing some leaf activities as well as trying different colored apples to see which one is our favorite.
     Picture day is scheduled for October 20th.

Mrs. Heatherly

Miss Schroders Middlers

Happy fall!
     Fall is in full swing here. We will have a new student joining us this month. We will continue with our letters with O, U, S, & T and the numbers 0-7.
     Librarian is on October 29,
     Picture Day is October 20,
     Donuts with Dudes is on October 22.
     Fall Festival is October 27.
     Spirit Week is the last week of October:

Monday is Fall Shirt Day
Tuesday is Crazy Day
Wednesday is PJ Day
Thursday is Hero Day
Friday is Sports Day

As always, any questions, contact me through Class Dojo or ask directly.
Have a safe and fun time Trick-or-Treating.

Miss. Schroder

Ms. Nowak’s and Mrs. Clark's Pre-K

     As the saying goes, Happy Fall Y’all! September has been a great month, and the kids are doing great in the classroom with learning the routines. As we continue to move forward with our letters and numbers, please be sure to reinforce what we are doing in the classroom at home, also.
     We move at a fast pace, and we don’t want any of the kids getting behind. Learning is a continuous thing and the more consistency the kids have with what we are learning, the quicker things will begin to click for them. Like I have said before, we are a TEAM working together for your child’s success.
     As the temperatures continue to dip into some nice, but cooler, temperatures, please remember to pack light jackets for the kids. I would like to make sure they get outside to play whenever possible, but if it is on the chilly side and everyone doesn’t have a jacket, then it won’t be possible to go outside. I also tend to keep the classroom on the chilly side (there is always a window open), so having sweaters available in the classroom is also nice for when the kids get chilly.
     We will be having a spirit week the week of October 27th, along with our Fall Festival on Monday, October 27th. Please continue to look at Class Dojo for more information regarding this week in mid-October.

Also, I post several updates on what we are doing in the classroom, but I also post lots of information for you as well. So it’s always a good idea to keep checking out our class on Class Dojo.
If you ever need anything from me, please do not hesitate to contact me through Class Dojo messaging.
I may not always respond immediately, but I try to respond as soon as I can.

Many Blessings,

Ms. Nowak & Mrs. Clark

September 2025

Welcome to Spin Kemp Christian Preschool! We are looking forward to an amazing school year! Preschool starts on Tuesday, September 2nd, for our M-Th/F students. Our M,W, F students will start on Wednesday, September 3rd. Doors open at 8:2 am.

Please remember tuition is due September 5th! Checks and payment envelopes can be dropped into the mailbox just inside the preschool entrance. Cash and payment envelopes should be brought to the office for a receipt.
We are a nut-free school! All classrooms have refrigerators, so string cheese, yogurt, and fresh fruit can be sent it and remain cold until snack time.
Paperwork- please make sure you get your child's physical and shot record as soon as possible. Our licensing does allow 30 days from the program start, but once that hits, your child will not be able to return until the form is turned in.

My name is Carol Boersma. This is my 6th year as director of SpinKemp. I have had 3 out of my 4 children come through this preschool. My husband retired from the Air Force
back in 2017. In 2019, we made Beavercreek our forever home. I have a degree in Early Childhood Education from Trocaire College (Buffalo, NY). I have worked in a few different style centers until our oldest was born. I was a stay-at-home mom for many years until I began subbing in 2018. My door is always open if you ever need to chat!

     Mrs. Nowak is our PreK teacher. This is her 6th year as lead teacher in PreK. Did you know that she is a pilot? But what does she fly? I am sure you’ll figure it out quickly!

     Mrs. Clark is the aide in the PreK class. Mrs. Clark is in her second year here at Spin Kemp, but has worked with children for a few years. She is super creative!

     Miss. Schroder is our Middler teacher. She has been with us since 2016. She has been a lead teacher in both the Early Beginner class and the Middler class. She is very active here at Spinning Road Baptist. You’ll often find her teaching Awana and VBS!

     We would like to welcome Mrs. Heatherly to our staff. Mrs. Heatherly will be our early beginner teacher this year. We are super excited to have her join us!!

   Finally, we have some amazing substitutes to our preschool! Mrs. Adducchio, Mrs. Linden,
and Mrs. McElroy

Izalith, September 6th

  Mrs. Heatherly's Early Beginners

     Welcome to the Early Beginnings Class. We are going to have a fun year! Your little ones will be painting, coloring, working puzzles, reading books, singing songs, learning new prayers, and so much more! I hope they are as excited as I am.
     Your child will be provided with their own tote bag. You will find a
red folder in the bag, which will have things such as newsletters, their daily “work”, and other correspondence that we may have to share. In the tote is a plastic bag labeled with your child’s name. If you could return the bag with a change of clothes as soon as possible, it would be greatly appreciated. There are times when art projects in particular are messy. Please dress your child in play clothes so they can paint and participate in other messy play without worrying about their clothes getting messy.
     With Preschool being a new and different place, there may be tears. I assure you they will be fine. It takes some longer than others to adjust, and that’s okay. If you would like, you may send your child’s stuffy or stuffed animal with them. Please have it labeled. This may give them comfort while they are transitioning.
     Thank you for sharing your child with us! It is an honor and a pleasure to watch them
grow and develop.
     If you have any questions or concerns, please reach out. We are always available
to listen and help.
Again, Welcome! Here’s to a great early beginning!

Mrs. Heatherly

  Miss. Schroders Middlers

     Welcome to a new school year!
     It is so good to see your children for the year! We will be learning our letters, numbers, shapes, & colors. We will practice recognizing and writing our names, cutting with scissors, and using glue.
For September, we will start with vowels A, E, I & O; the numbers 0, 1, 2, 3, & 4.
If you have any questions, feel free to contact me through Class Dojo or talk to me in person.
     Please remember to pack a full change of clothes (Shirt, shorts/pants/skirt/dress,
socks, underwear).
     Thank you and God Bless,

Miss. Schroder

Ms. Nowak and Mrs. Clark PreK

     Welcome back to school! I can’t believe summer is already over, but here we are! We are very excited to meet everyone and see all the new friendships start to bloom and old ones rekindled!
September is going to be a busy month, and we are going to dive right in! We will start with some basic skills (names, colors, shapes, tracing, etc.), then we will move into our weekly letters and numbers.
Please be sure to read all the paperwork sent home in your yellow folders, but please keep the folders in your child’s bag. I will use them to send home their daily work.
     I am a big advocate for fresh air. Whether it is getting the kids outside or having a window open in our classroom. Even if it is a little chilly in the mornings, I will still try to get the kids outside (as long as it is not wet), so please pay attention to the temperatures and send light jackets or sweaters when they are needed.
     Don’t forget to accept the Class Dojo invite in your emails. I will use this tool as daily communication with everyone. One thing I forgot to mention in the paperwork, for security purposes, only parents of the kids in the class will be allowed to be on Class Dojo.
We are really excited to see what this month brings us. The lasting friendships that are formed in the early weeks warm our hearts so much. If there is anything you have concerns about, please do not hesitate to reach out to us via Class Dojo.
     Thank you for the chance to get to know you and your child. We are really excited to see everyone’s growth this year.

Ms. Nowak and Mrs. Clark

A few housekeeping items:

Tuition is due on Monday, May 5th. If you didn’t receive your envelope, then you are paid in full.

Trike a Thon should have occurred on April 30th, but I am writing this on April 15. Our rain date is Monday, May 5th.

May 5 ~ 9 ~ Teacher Appreciation week. Let our teachers know how much you appreciate them; they work so hard for long hours daily.
May 9 ~ Muffins with Mom is scheduled for 11:30 am in the fellowship hall. We ask that each child have one adult to attend.

May 14 ~ Last visit with our favorite librarian, Mr. Isaac
May 19 ~ Graduation for our Pre-K class at 6 pm.
May 21 ~ Last Day Luau ~ have your kiddo dress up in their best luau gear!

I would like to thank you for entrusting your children with us. I have had so much fun watching them all grow and learn. I am sad to see our Pre-K class head off to kindergarten, but I know they are ready and will do amazing! If you won’t be returning in the fall, we hope your family will have fond memories of Spin Kemp Christian Preschool.
     I would like to give a shout out to the Adducchio family, they have been with our preschool since 2012. Their youngest heads off to kindergarten this fall. I will miss this amazing family, but I am thankful that I will see them around Beavercreek.
     Another shout to the Nodland family. They have been here over 6 years and will also send
their youngest off to preschool. Not sure how the parking lot will be monitored once they leave. Best Wishes Adducchio and Nodland families, you will be missed.
     Lastly, we say goodbye to Mrs. Linden. She has decided to take another job opportunity and will be missed.

Have a wonderful summer!

It's hard to believe summer is almost here! In May we look forward to more time spent playing outside and hopefully being able to release our butterflies. There will also be several special year-end events that we'd love to have you join us for. (Information about what time each class will be participating will be listed on Dojo). In the classroom we will be talking about zoo animals and the beach. :) It's been a joy to spend a few months with your little ones.
Thanks for sharing them with me!

Hello parents,
      As we are coming to the end of the year, we still have a couple of letters left Y & X. We will continue with numbers 24 & 25. We will talk about number 26-30 briefly.
     Muffins with Mom, field Day, Librarian, and the last
day luau.
Happy End of the school year!!!!
Thank you and God Bless,
Miss. Schroder

Ms. Nowak and Mrs. Clark’s Pre-K Class

   It is hard to believe that we are now at the end of the school year, but here we are! It feels like just yesterday we started school. The kids have all grown so much and exceeded all expectations. We are incredibly proud of each kid.
     This month is going to be in full blown cheetah speed (I use this term with my own kids) with something going on every week of the month. We will be starting with Muffins with Mom, then Field Day, Preschool graduation, and last, our Last Day Luau Party. I cannot stress this enough, but please keep an eye on Class Dojo in the next couple of weeks. A lot of information will be on there for you.
We will be finishing up our alphabet and our numbers up to 25, as well as adding in weeks of review. We will continue to work on other concepts – simple adding, sequencing, comparing, patterns, rhyming, etc. The kids have proved repeatedly that they are ready for kindergarten in the fall and while we are sad to see them leave, we also excited for their new adventures and all the new knowledge they will gain.
     As we are at the end of the year, we want to take this opportunity to thank you, the parents. You have supported the kids throughout the year and we are incredibly grateful for that. Thank you for coming together with us to make sure the kids are fully prepared for kindergarten. We would not be as successful as we are without you. So thank you for all you have done this school year.

With a Grateful Heart,
Ms. Nowak and Mrs. Clark

No school on Friday, April 18th and Monday, April 21st in observance of the Easter holiday.

As we come back to school after Spring Break we will start off talking about foods- first fruits & veggies and then on to yummy treats. :)
Then we will spend a few days reviewing the Easter story and doing some spring crafts. We will finish up April discussing bugs & flowers and will get to enjoy watching caterpillars transform into butterflies in our classroom. The kids have made a lot of progress recently with sharing and taking turns and I look forward to continuing to watch them grow as a class.

Mrs. Linden

Miss Schroder's Middlers
Happy Easter,
As we get closer to the end of the year, it gets a little busier. We have Easter stuff as well as Trike-a-thon. We will continue working on our letters and numbers continuing with Z, W, V, & Y; and numbers 21-24. There will also be a sign up the Trike-a-thon and Field Day.
Thank you,
Miss. Schroder

Ms. Nowak and Mrs. Clark's Pre-K

Happy spring! I’m not sure about you, but I am ready for the warmer weather to be here.
Please remember that while the weather is warming up, please continue to have the students bring a light jacket or hoodie. When we have our scheduled playtime, it can still be a little chilly and I would like to get the kids outside as much as possible.
We will be getting into the full swing of things as we prepare to close out this school year (it will be here before any of us realize it!). A lot of updates will be on Class Dojo throughout the month.

1. Spring and Graduation Pictures on Monday, April 7th.
2. Easter egg Hunt on Wednesday, April 16th.
3. No School on Friday, April 18th and Monday, April 21st.
4. April 30th will be our annual Trike-A-Thon, and we will be tie-dyeing t-shirts on Monday, April 28th for our Field Day in May.

We will be continuing our letters and will be finishing our numbers. We will be having more review weeks as well as working on missing letters/numbers, simple math, beginning sounds, rhyming, etc.

On a personal note (from Ms. Nowak), April is Autism Awareness and Acceptance Month. As you know, my son is Autistic, so this month is very personal and special to me. Awareness and acceptance are two very separate things. Awareness is easy – you just acknowledge someone is different than you and move on. Acceptance takes work, and effort. Acceptance comes from a place of understanding – understanding that another classmate or person is different from you but still asking to play with them (or them with you), sitting with them at lunch and talking, just being a good friend to them, and including them. As I have found through my son’s experiences, many school kids have a lack of knowledge about disorders such as Autism, and that lack of knowledge can lead to bullying or singling someone out all because they are the “weird kid.” As adults, we are aware of such disorders, but we often forget to talk to our children about them. As we go through this month, I urge you to talk to your children. Inform them. Educate them. Encourage them to be a friend to the “weird kid”. Encourage them to be a friend to everyone even when their likes don’t align. Talk to them and reassure them that it is OK for people to be different and develop differently.
     If you have any questions, I am always willing to talk. I don’t have all the right answers, but I can definitely share my family’s story. There is a meme on Facebook that says “I am not an expert on autism. I am an expert on MY CHILD with autism” and that is 100% correct.
   “I do not suffer from Autism, but I do suffer from the way you treat me.” – Tyler Durdin
   “I don’t talk about Autism for sympathy or pity. I talk about Autism to spread awareness and acceptance for those children and adults that are just as important as you or me.”

Joyfully,

March 2025 Parent Newsletter

Preschool seems to be zipping right by this school year. Late January and almost all of February were pretty rough for us as we had plumbing and heating issues. I want to thank you all for your patience and willingness to adapt during those times. Let’s hope it just warms up and we have no more issues this school year. I also want to thank my teachers for going with the flow and switching it up when needed!

Just a few reminders for this month:

Tuition is due Wednesday, March 5th.
We would like to officially welcome Mrs. Linden back to the preschool. She is our teacher in the early beginner class. She is absolutely amazing with the littles. We do have a few spots open in that class if there is an interest!
Continuation forms can be turned in at any time along with a $50 registration fee. We will open registration to the general public the first week of March. So get those forms turned in to secure your child's spot for fall 2025.
Daylight savings: we spring ahead 1 hr. on Sunday, March 9th.
We have a Leprechaun hunt scheduled for Monday, March 17th. The kids always have fun with this one. They get to explore the building while following clues in hopes to find that tricky leprechaun.
Spring Break starts March 24th- 28th.
Beavercreek police department will be hosting their annual Safety Town this summer. Registration is opening in April. This is for children in the Beavercreek district who are entering kindergarten or 1st grade this fall. They offer two sessions June 9th-12th from 9-11 or 1-3. It’s a great program if your child is eligible for it. Follow Beavercreek Police Department on Facebook or visit www.beavercreekohio.gov/safetytown for updates.
Little Dreams Play Studio is due to open in March. It is located in the Airway shopping center. If you follow the Facebook page for them, you can print out a flyer for a free admission. It’s great to have a play place in our area.

I hope everyone enjoys their spring break!

God Bless,
Carol Boersma,

 Mrs. Lindens Early Beginners

This month I expect we will fully settle into our routine.
We will continue to practice sharing, taking turns, and listening while our friends are speaking. The kids will get to experience their first visit from the Burkhardt Librarian, Mr. Isaac, on the 12th and try to catch a leprechaun on the 17th. Our themes for March will be All About Us, Pets, and Transportation. If Ohio decides to send warm weather our way we will try to play outside, so please be sure to send a sweatshirt or jacket to school.
Thanks!
Mrs. Linden

Ms. Schroders Middlers

We will continue with our letters B, Q, J, & Z numbers 18, 19, & 20. This month we will have our Leprechaun Hunt.
Spring Break is March 24 thru March 28, returning March 31.
God Bless,
Ms. Schroder

Ms. Nowak and Mrs. Clark Pre-K

     We are progressing nicely through our alphabet and numbers. We will continue to work on new concepts (sequencing, rhyming, missing numbers, and simple math). After going through the assessments, we will adjust our weekly worksheets to do more reviewing while learning new numbers and letters.

     Mid-March will bring us a Leprechaun Hunt for St. Patrick’s Day and then Spring Break. I have a feeling March will zoom past us in no time with so much going on.
It is still cold outside, so keep packing those sweaters in the kids’ bags in case they get chilly in the classroom (and let’s be real – who knows when we will or won’t have heat ). If it does start to get nicer later in the month, I would like to get them back outside (and they have been begging to get outside also!).

            I know this may seem like I’m jumping ahead, but the end of the year will be here before we know it. There is so much going on in the remaining months and they will fly by. Doesn’t seem like we should be here already, but we are. The kids have done amazingly well with everything, and I know a lot of that is thanks to the parents. We really appreciate all the work you do at home to reiterate what we are doing in the classroom. As I said at the beginning of the year, we all are a team – working together to make sure your child succeeds. So, with the end of the year quickly approaching, let’s keep the momentum going!!

Much Love,
Ms. Nowak and Mrs. Clark

I feel like this school year is zooming right by. How are we already turning the calendar to February? February is always a quick month for us in the preschool. Here are a few reminders for the month!

Tuition is due Wednesday, February 5th.
Classroom Valentine parties are scheduled for Wednesday, February

Parent-teacher conferences are scheduled for Thursday, February 13th, and Friday, February 14th. Please see the teachers' sign-up sheets to schedule your conference. Preschool will not be in session on those days, but you are more than welcome to bring your child if need be. Just let your child’s teacher know so they can set out some toys.
No school on 2/17 in observance of Presidents Day.
Our early beginner class is planning to reopen on Monday, February 3rd. We hope to enroll a few more children so if you have a child that is potty trained and 2 ½-3 this would be a great start. We do offer a sibling discount. This class only meets M, W, and F.
Pre-K parents: Kindergarten registration will be starting for local schools. I believe Beavercreek has opened its scheduling for the district. Fairborn City School has registration opening on February 24th with screening done in April.

I am not sure if some of have heard, but Pastor Scott will be retiring in early February. He has been such a blessing to the preschool. We will miss his coming down to sing with the kids every month. Please keep him in your prayers as he begins his retirement.
God Bless,
Carol Boersma, Preschool Director

Happy February!
     As we continue on with the school year we will continue with the letters G, L, & F, numbers 15-17.
Valentine’s Party is on Wednesday, February 12. Your children are allowed to bring Valentine’s to pass out.
     Parent Teacher Conferences are on Thursday and Friday the 13 & 14, there will be a sign-up for them, please make sure to pick a day that works best for you. We can do conferences over the phone just indicate which you would like.
     The following Monday, February 17 is President’s Day and there is No school.
     If you have any questions please feel free to ask or message through Class Dojo.

Thank you and God Bless!!

Happy Valentine’s! It’s hard to believe we are heading into February already, but here
we are.
We are going to start getting busy again. This month will probably go by very quickly with a lot of things planned. I will be starting the month with doing individual assessments on the kids to prepare for our parent teacher conferences mid-February.

We will have our Valentine’s Day Party on Wednesday the 12th. The kids will be exchanging Valentine’s, and I would encourage you to have the kids write their names themselves on them. This will be great practice for them! More details for this will be posted to Class Dojo when it gets closer to the day.

   There will be no school on Thursday, 2/13 and Friday 2/14 for Parent/Teacher Conferences (signups will be posted soon) as well as no school on Monday, 2/17 for President’s Day. For Parent/Teacher conferences, we encourage you to come sans children so we can focus on the task at hand in a timely manner.

    It may not seem like it now, but the end of the school year will be here before we know it and we still have a lot of material to cover. While we are seeing lots of growth in the kids (and that is so encouraging), you are reinforcing what we are doing in the classroom is where the knowledge really gets cemented into the kids. This is a fast-paced classroom and that is only possible because of your help. You are all rockstar parents and I appreciate you so much.

    Please continue to look at Class Dojo for updates from me. Class Dojo is my primary source for communication with you. If we have any inclement weather, I will post our status on there as soon as I know.

     The rest of the school year is going to pass by us in no time. We have a lot of fun activities planned in the upcoming months that we are excited for. We are so encouraged with all the kids and the improvement we have seen. And knowing more improvement will still happen, is so exciting. Let’s all keep up the amazing work!

With Love,
Ms. Nowak and Mrs. Clark

Happy New Year!! I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas and start to the New Year. Here are just a few reminders for this month.

Tuition will be due by Monday, January 13th. This is due to us sending the envelopes out after the break.
No School on Monday, January 20th in honor of Martin Luther King Jr. Day
Glow day is scheduled for January 29th, more info to come.
Please make sure your child has a coat when they come to preschool, we are required by licensing to practice fire drills every month. I do try to do them on the warmer days, but that’s not always possible. Thankfully, we are only outside for a few minutes, but if it was

the real deal, we would be out much longer.

The Red Robin fundraiser is scheduled for Monday, January 27th. They are open starting at 11 am until 9:30 pm.Parent-teacher conferences are coming in February.
They are scheduled for February 13th-14th. The students will not be in the building those days. You are welcome to bring them along for the conference, just let us know so we can set some toys out for them. The teachers will have a sign up when it gets closer to those dates. Continuation forms will also go out during that time. Turning in that form and the $50 registration fee will secure your child’s spot for next fall. We will open registration to the general public on Monday, March 3rd.

God Bless,

Happy New Year!!!!
We will continue on with the letters H, R, & M; the numbers
11, 12, 13, & 14.
We are going to have a donut snowman snack on January 22. There will be a sign up for it, we will have powdered little donuts, chocolate chips, M&Ms, and pretzel sticks. We will make our snowmen and then eat them of course.
Thank you and God Bless,

     Happy New Year! I can’t believe we are already this far into the school year, but here
we are. The kids have made so much progress and we are so proud of them.
      We will continue with our letters and numbers of the week. We will be doing more with patterns, as well as introducing sequences, rhyming words, missing letters/numbers and simple addition and subtraction.
         We will also start learning last names! You will notice that the kid’s first names disappeared over Christmas Break. This is important information they will need to have for kindergarten, but we will not stress too much on it. Many of our kiddos are still struggling with their names, please be sure to work with them at home.
     Please continue to check Class Dojo!! This is our primary source for communication, not only for what we are doing in the classroom and upcoming events, but I will also be posting on there if we have a snow day due to inclement weather (I will post as soon as I know, so check before leaving your house).
      As always, if you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to reach out to us. We are here to help the kids grow and if there is anything you see that we can do to further help with this, let us know!

Grace and Peace,
Ms. Nowak and Mrs. Clark

     This school year is definitely moving along quickly. The kids are doing great and getting quite comfortable in the classroom and with their classmates. It is really fun to see the friendships that are evolving.
      This month is going to be short and BUSY! To start the month,
we will be having a Grinch Day on Monday, December 9th with
all things Grinch (wear your best Grinch attire!)!
We will have our Happy Birthday Jesus/Christmas Party on Wednesday, December 18th. Friday, December 20th will be Pajama/Movie Day. Please keep an eye on Class Dojo for additional details on all events.
     So far, we have been relatively healthy in the classroom. This is great to see! Let’s keep this streak going, however, if the kiddos do start showing any sign of sickness, please be considerate of the other students and staff and keep them home. This will help keep our classroom healthier, thus the kids being staying healthier.
     December is going to be quick and busy. Please keep working with the kids on what we are learning in the classroom. You working with them at home is really where things start to stick with the kids.
     Christmas Break is Monday, 12/23 – Friday, 01/03. During this time, I will be changing everything to LAST NAMES ONLY. Please work with the kids during break on recognizing their last name so they aren’t too lost when we return.
    Please do not hesitate to reach out if you have any questions or concerns. We are always here for you and the kids.

Thank you!

Ms. Nowak and Mrs. Clark
