How can you help:
Arrive at school 45 minutes prior to your lesson
Please have your child dressed in their bathing suit and sunscreen applied before arriving at school
Place change of clothes in child's cubby
Bring a child sized towel labeled with child's name - towels will be left at school for the duration of the lessons
Lessons run Monday - Thursday for 2 weeks

Toy Policy

Toys frome home are so exciting to bring to school. However, we ask that children do not bring toys to school as they are a distraction even if they are left in the cubbies. They also make sharing difficult as they belong to a child. Also teachers feel awful if the toy gets broken or lost. Please have your child leave  toys in their carseat for the ride home. If a classroom has sharing days, they are typically scheduled and children are asked to bring in items relevent to the study that month. Your child is encouraged to bring a blanket and small stuffy for naptime.
