We seek to help children develop a positive self image and sense of self worth so that they will feel good about themselves, their uniqueness and individuality, as they play, work and live with others. Though kindergarten experiences may appear to be just play or fun , they provide important learning situations which aid in preparing the child for future activities in the primary grades. The following pages will inform you of some of the things we do in kindergarten, plus some follow up suggestions for home use. These safety rules should be started at home and will be reinforced at school. All items of clothing worn to school should be marked with child s name, including mittens, hats, boots, yellow slickers, etc.
Plastic bags placed over shoes are a great aid in getting boots on and off more easily.
On birthdays - treats may be shared with classmates. Please do not send invitations for small parties to be held at home. On gym days children should dress comfortably and wear sneakers or other rubber soled shoes. The smock will be returned at the end of the year. For the safety of the children, it is recommended that the students not be allowed to get off at any stop other than their own.
