- Please make sure your child's cubbie has weather appropriate clothes including socks. If your child borrows our extras, please wash and return asap. Your child also needs coat, hat, mittens, and, if there is any snow, boots. We play outside everyday unless it is raining. We love shoveling snow and building snowmen! The Montessori adage from Germany is,"There is no such thing as bad weather, only bad clothing." Layers work well. Sending hats and mittens in school bags means being prepared, especially for the morning temperature.
- Please check the course pages for snack calendars, newsletters and photos. The next newsletters will be posted on Dec. 5.
- Don't forget to send in your child's pictures--one as a baby and one "right now"-- for our January board.
- Winter sessions for PEP classes are now available. Check out the website for workshops and classes and learn some useful strategies for parenting. www.PEPparent.org
- Lastly, the Student Council is collecting canned goods and personal items for the Little Sisters of the Poor. While we are not part of the Green/White Challenge, we can help them fill their pantry by sending some of the needed items. "Tis the season" for love and peace!
