It's All about the kids!
January is the month for Parent Teacher Conferences. We will have sign up sheets in the foyer where you will be able to sign up for the time of your choice. Due to the amount of children we have, we are only able to do 15 minute conferences at this time. If you feel that you need more time, we can arrange something for you at a later date.
This is a great opportunity to sit down with your child's teacher(s) and discuss your child's development and set goals for the remainder of the year. The children ore welcome to come to the conferences but are they are not required.
We will also be hosting our annual book fair during this week. This is a chance to restock your library and help out the school at the same time. We appreciate your support and please let us know if you have any questions.

Tis' The Season! - Continued
We want to help as many people in need as we can, so here are the charities we will be working with. The Utah Food Bank, The Road Home Homeless Shelter, and a Sub for Santa family. You can see the fun foyer with the collection boxes and the lists of things people are in need of. We have set our goals and really hope to reach them. We know money is tight this year, but every little bit helps. There are many less fortunate families out there that really need our help. If we all work together we can really help make this a great holiday season for so many people. Please see Lynn if you have any further questions or suggestions. Thank you again for all of your support. We appreciate it very much!!!

Tis' The Season!
We want to make everyone aware of all the things we are doing to limit the spread of the flu and other illnesses this winter season.
We sanitize each and every toy and piece of equipment in each classroom and the common areas. We recommend that staff get vaccinated. We encourage staff to stay home if they are sick. We watch children and send them home if they are showing any signs of illness. We isolate the sick child(ren) from the other children in the school until the parents arrive to take them home. We follow good health practices by continually washing hands of both staff and children.
Here is what we need your help with: If you child is showing signs of illness, PLEASE keep them home. Please keep your child home until they are symptom free for at least 24 hours. Please contact the school if your child is diagnosed with any illness so we can inform other parents. Wash your hands as well as your child's hands upon arrival to the school.
We hope that if we all work together we can keep the illnesses to a minimum. Thank you for all your help in this matter.

New School Year
We have made it through out first full month of the new school year! So far things are going very well. The children are adjusting and the teachers are already falling in love with their new friends. We really do thank you for working with us and being patient during this transition.
Another reminder to turn in your emails so we can communicate with you and send you memos and reminders. We have found that it is easier for parents to know what is going on with the school if they are sent a quick email as opposed to a note in their child's cubby.
We are very encouraged by what we have seen so far this year and hope that you are too! Please feel free to talk to our email any of us anytime. Thanks for all you do!

The New Year
Welcome to the new school year. We have so many great things in store for the upcoming year. Just a quick update from back to school night for those who couldn't make it and a nice reminder for those who did.
Fundraising: We want to provide the best care possible and that takes money. We do many little fundraisers throughout the year to keep the “extra things” for the children. We want you to enjoy what we have to offer but not feel obligate to purchase anything. This month we have a coupon book that has hundreds of dollars worth of savings. This only costs $20 and $10 goes directly back to the school. We also have family portraits here on Sept. 18-19. There is a 420 donation to the school and you receive a free 11x14 portrait. If you sell these to friends and family you can earn more free products. See Lynn for details.
We really appreciate your input and opinions and want to hear from each of you. As always, never hesitate to talk to any of us.

August
Family Picnic - Saturday August 15th 11am to 1pm. We provide the main dish and you bring a side. It is a great day to socialize with old friends and make new ones, say goodbye to old teachers and hello to the new ones coming on board. It will be at Alta Canyon Park Pavilion 9500 south and 2000 east. we hope to see you there!
Also, we would like to help grant the wish of a child through the Make A Wish Rubber Ducky Derby. We have chosen Brian, a 16 year-old boy who has a type of bone cancer. His wish is to have a woodworking shop of his own. We will be selling ducks for $5.00 a duck. You will be entered into a drawing for prizes including a new car! This is a wonderful cause and we want to help out anyway we can. Our goal is to sell 200 ducks. That would be $1,000 towards Brian's wish. We hope if each family purchases on duck, we can reach our goal! We will post more information in the foyer.
The Children's Academy has very generous parents and we know that this is a goal we can achieve! Thanks again for your desire to help.
