The new school year is off and running! We have had a very busy week. Last Wednesday, the teachers spent the first portion of their day in inservice training. We had a music therapy workshop, a course on objective observation techniques, and we learned about new ways to use the accu-cut (die cut) machine in our classrooms for 'more than just bulletin boards.' Teachers earned between two and four credit hours, depending on the courses in which they took part. The next two days (and nights, and weekend for many of them!) were spent getting classrooms in perfect shape for the first day of school on Tuesday. We hope you enjoy the new looks all around the building.
We have many new friends joining us this year and we are all learning our new routines and such. Things are going well. We also have friends back from vacation...it is great to see our friends we have missed all summer. Everyone looks so proper in their uniforms, and we are all excited for next week, when we have our first full week of school, and we will begin German and Spanish as well.
Grandparent's Day will be celebrated Thursday at 3:15 at the Jean Road campus, and Friday at 3:00 at the Meridian campus. Please RSVP to your child's teacher as soon as possible so we know how many Grandparents we'll have the pleasure of meeting.
That's all for now....enjoy the sunshine!
