Dear Families,
What a fabulous year we have had! We are ready to end the school year with our stepping up exercises and prekindergarten graduation. Please check your teachers emails for date, time and location .
This school year has been a very busy and successful school year. Our Kid‘s Korner parents generously fundraised for our teachers trip to the NYSAEYC conferences in Verona NY, hotel accommodations and dinner for our first night. We also almost reached our goal for the first floor painting and child handrail. Only $338 to go!
I have also been scheduling school repairs to be paid by Kid‘s Korner in July and August when the school is closed. We will be painting the second floor,
re-tiling bathrooms and new bathroom doors, sanding our outdoor structure and re-staining. We will also be taking out the shelf by the entry way and adding a parent seating area! Every classroom will have new sinks and countertops and the two’s loft stairs will be repaired. A lot of changes to come, so look out for school improvements in the September.
We have also installed a new AC unit in the Prekindergarten class and will be changing the toilet seat and lids very shortly downstairs. We installed 3 more security cameras in the yard and front of building, so we have 4 total. We also installed new basement stairs to keep our staff safe when going up and down for supplies.
Thanks to our parent group and fundraiser coordinators Liza and Jill (3′s parents), we have had amazing events this year- Our scoot-a-thon, movie night, Lego land trip, raffles and so much more. Liza will also be looking into our fall farm trip and she has also scheduled an Intrepid school trip for our 3′s-5′s summer campers for July 17th and the Gazillion Bubble Show on July 31st.
Ms. Kaity will be running the KK 2013 summer camp. I will be covering one week in August while Ms. Kaity is away and Ms. Contrubis will cover a second week! She will be visiting our friends at The Kid‘s Korner on occasion although she has officially announced her retirement. She looks forward to seeing everyone at the Stepping Up exercises and Prekindergarten Graduation.
I would also like to welcome Ms. Kristie Jones who will join The Kid‘s Korner Preschool as our 3′s teacher. Ms. Eileen will be the three’s Co-Teacher and Ms. Lou will be the 3′s assistant teacher. Our 3′s will meet Ms. Kristie during home visits. Emails to schedule home visits will be sent out by the end of June.
Ms. Tanya, Ms. Charmaine and Ms.Jennifer will be working with our prekindergarten class. Ms. Robyn will not be returning to The Kid‘s Korner in the fall and wish her happiness with her baby Julian.
Ms. Aarti will be taking time off to finish her Masters degree. At this time, we are happy to introduce Ms. Millie as our 2′s teacher for the school year. Ms. Malin and Ms. Juliana will remain in the 2′s as assistant teachers. We wish Ms. Aarti all the best and will miss her.
Happy Summer Birthday to You!
