Fantastic Parents As Teachers Family Fun Group Connection Event!
Due to high chances of rain this evening, we changed the location for our Family Fun Event this evening to the Early Childhood Center at 9417 South Broadway. We will have the gym area open for children to play. If it is not raining, children can play on the playground. You can grab your free Kona Ice Treats on your way out to head home as the treats won't be allowed inside the building. Hope to see all of you in attendance!
One week until the big event! Join the us at the Taste of Lemay/Affton on Friday October 6th in the new Hancock Elementary Gymnasium!
We have rescheduled our Family Fun Event from last night to next Wednesday, October 4th, from 6pm to 7pm. We look forward to seeing as many of you there as possible!
Unfortunately, the weather did not cooperate for our event. Due to playground equipment being wet, not being able to use sidewalk chalk, and not safe for children to run around on blacktop, we will be rescheduling.
Last reminder of our Family Fun Event for this evening, 6pm to 7pm, at Hancock Place Elementary School! Kona Ice Truck, sidewalk chalk, bubbles, and playground! Weather forecast is FANTASTIC for an outdoor fun event! Thank you to our Parents As Teachers and Preschool programs!

FANTASTIC first day of school for our preschool TIGERS! Messages will be sent as needed, but possibly a few more like these during the first days as routines are established and expectations are met. A few important items to share:
-Please remember to stay at your car for drop off and pick up. Do not walk to the front
door. This includes not parking on the parking lot and walking to the front door.
Most parents met this expectation and it went smoothly.
-Please pull up to the white painted line if you are the first car.
-Walkers did a great job of lining up on the right side of the front doors.
-We are hoping to have car tags completed and ready to distribute tomorrow
afternoon. Place this on your rearview mirror so that we are able to see your car tag
number and name.
-For pick up, remember to stay at your car. When your child is brought to you, please
buckle them up safety and as quickly as possible so we can keep the line moving.
-Attendance is very important. All of our full day classes are nearly filled. We expect
children to be present every day unless sick. If your child's attendance becomes a
concern, it is possible that we may have to remove them from our program and
provide the opportunity to other families waiting for a spot to open. Full day
students are expected to attend the the entire school day.
THANK YOU!
