Carrie Gosch PreK School Family,

     We need your help in the parking lot.   Please reduce your speed for the safety of everyone in the parking lot.  Also, please follow the directives of the Safety Specialists.  Thank you to all of the parents who are assisting us by following our new procedures in the parking lot.  

     If ever you find the need to change your child's transportation plans for the end of the day, please contact the office by 10:00.  We have provided a form that you may fill out and turn in at the office.  We will notify transportation and your child's teacher before dismissal begins.  Your assistance in this matter will help us have a smooth dismissal process each day.

      The students have completed their very first theme.  We studied apples and connected this topic to reading, math, science, social studies and art.  Please visit our hallways to view the projects produced by the students.  Our new theme will be Pumpkins and Community Helpers.  Community helpers will visit our classrooms this month as guest readers.  We will also complete our first school-wide project within our pumpkin theme.  Please continue to check the website for updates about our school-wide science project.

     Our field trip for October will be a trip to Scheeringa Farms & Produce.  The students will pick a pumpkin and enjoy a hay ride.  If you wish to chaperone, please contact your child's teacher.  We have a limited amount of chaperones that we can take on this trip.   Chaperones will be selected on a first come, first served basis.  The deadline to complete the pre-volunteering process is October 11, 2017.  If you have not submitted information for a background check and attended the mandatory Parent Volunteer Session, we will not be able to take you with us on the upcoming field trips in October.  Ms. Herrera, our Parent Liaison, will assist you with completing the volunteering process.  Our students will go in cohorts to the pumpkin patch:

Ms.Roberts, Mr. Rosado and Ms. Van Vossen will go to the pumpkin patch on October 19th, at 10:30 AM

Ms. Babusiak, Ms. Johnson and Ms. Tellez will go to the pumpkin patch on October 23rd, at 10:00

Ms. Kelley, Ms. Mihalek and Ms. Willner will go to the pumpkin patch on October 26th, at 10:30

     We look forward to meeting you at our Parent & Teacher Conferences on October 11th.  Hispanic Heritage will also be celebrated on October 11th.  Please come to visit us from 2:30 PM until 4:30 PM on that day.  We will share your child's academic progress thus far and share refreshments.  If you have questions or concerns at anytime, my door is open.  Please give us a call and share your thoughts.

Sincerely,

Mrs. E. Glenn
