Dear TK Parents,
We had a successful and happy First Day of School! I can already see that we will be having a wonderful year. I appreciate your cooperation this morning during drop off as tears were very little to none! Wow! That is amazing! Great job Parents!
I will be sending home a gallon size plastic bag. Please put emergency clothes in the bag (play clothes is fine). These clothes will be used in case there is a spill, a potty accident, or an unforeseen reason to change clothes. Include the following items: shirt, shorts, underwear, and socks. Label all items with your child’s names.
The school has ordered the TK folders, but they have not arrived. We will be using the blue folder as a temporary folder until the TK folders come in. Use this folder as a way to communicate notes and paperwork.
The TK website is up and running, however, the Current TK Family page has not yet been created has been created. Please check to make sure you are able to get on. I will continue to work on that section this week. Just for your information, the password to enter this section will be ********* (please read your hard copy for the password). Please keep this password handy, but refrain from sharing. There will not be any “homework” packets available this week since it is the first week of school. Remember, homework is also optional unless stated.
I would like to request parents to place a luggage tag or some type of permanent label (iron on labels, etc.) on your child’s tote bag. This will make sorting 17 bags much easier.
If your child will be attending daycare, please send a separate bag for their nap items. I suggest the reusable grocery bags such as the Target red bags. Again, place your child’s name on the bag and all the nap items. These items will stay at school for the duration of the week.
If you have any further questions or concerns, please don’t hesitate to ask. I welcome you to St. Irenaeus School! Great communication and teamwork between families and teachers will provide a successful school year!
Have a great start of the year!
Mrs. Paragas and Miss Cuellar
