Reminders!

REMINDERS!!

SNACK:  We have snack EVERY DAY!  We are working very hard and need a little snack before lunch.  Please send a HEALTHY snack for your child.  Suggestions include:  fruit, veggie sticks, goldfish, pretzels, cheese, crackers, and yogurt.  Please do not send juice, cake, pie, cookies, candy or fruit roll ups.

GYM:  We have gym on Monday and Wednesday.  Please dress your child in their gym uniform (tennis shoes, orange t-shirt and black shorts or sweatpants.)

QUIET TIME:  We have quiet time every day from about 12:00-12:30.  Your child needs to bring a beach towel in a canvas bag.  They will bring their towel home on Friday’s to be washed.  It should be returned on Monday.

TARDIES: Please keep in mind that it is very important for your child to arrive at school on time.  They need the time to visit with friends, and get the “wiggles” out before class starts.  After four (4) tardies in one grading period, your child will miss recess every time they are late.  Please be assured that if your child rides the bus and it is late, this will not count against them. 

 

Welcome to Kindergarten!

Saint Paul Kindergarten Program:

The Saint Paul Kindergarten program takes a child centered approach to learning.  We want encourage your child to explore and learn about God and the world around them through whole and small group activities, as well as independent work.  We provide a safe environment where the love of books, reading, and writing are fostered.  Children learn cooperation and how to solve problems, which increases their independence and self-confidence.  Our goal is to inspire your child’s natural curiosity and love of learning.

Our Teaching Philosophy:

We understand that your child comes to us with unique experiences, interests and learning styles. Our goal is to truly know your child well and use this knowledge to guide, support and motivate him/her. We believe that good teaching requires continual professional development, personal reflection and collaboration. We value parent involvement at every level and encourage you to partner with us to give your child the most powerful and joyous learning experience possible.
