* Shortened schedule for new students first three days of school.
The first day of school for the 2011–2012 year is Monday, August 29. To ease the transition of children new to our program, pick-up time for all NEW three and four year old students will be 1:00 pm on that day. This includes the late 2s/early 3s class (classroom 7).
Children who are entering our two-year old classes (Preschool classrooms 5–6 for 2-year olds and 2 ½ year olds) will have an abbreviated schedule to ease their transition. On the first day, Monday, August 30, the children will attend school from 9:00–11:30 am with a parent. On Tuesday, they will attend from 9:00 am–1:00 pm (after lunch) and on Wednesday from 9:00 am–4:00 pm (after nap). Thursday will be the first full day.
Returning students will start with their regular schedule on Monday, August 29.
