Dear Parents,
Can you believe it? This is the last month of the
school year and it is the busiest yet! We'll be gearing up for
summer fun with lots of activities taking place both inside and
outside.
As our school year comes to a close, we the teachers,
share mixed emotions. We are so proud and privileged to have
shared our love of learning with your children, yet feel saddened
that the school year is coming to an end.
We look forward to
seeing many of you back in the Fall. For our graduates, we know
Kindergarten will be an exciting time and hope all of our alumni
will stop by and visit us. Our care and love for your children
does not end on the last day of school. We will forever be enriched
because of our rewarding time together.
For returning students, the 2008/2009 school
year “Meet
Your Teacher” Day will be Saturday, August 23rd. We will
begin classes on Thursday, September 4th and Friday, September
5th (one hour both days). A note will be mailed to you in July
with more details.
On behalf of the Christ Lutheran Preschool
Board of Education, Christ Lutheran Church, the teachers, and
myself – we thank you for your support and active
participation in our program this year and pray for God’s
special blessings to you all. Thank you so much for a
wonderful school year! Have a safe and fun summer.
