Information on our Pizza Fundraiser is attached. Last year was such a great success! We hope that this will be even better. This fundraiser is a wonderful way for our school to raise money for in-house visitors, entertainers and special equipment for the classes. We appreciate everyone’s support and participation to make this another huge success!
We still have a few children who have not turned in their $30 activity fee. Please get it in as soon as possible to help cover the expenses of our first field trip and the Pumpkin Party at the end of this month. When choosing your child’s costume for the Pumpkin Party at school, please keep in mind that they must be non-violent. Some suggestions that work out nice are: Animals, Insects, Prince/Princess, Cowboy/girl, Disney Characters, etc. In the past, the children have brought some type of treat to pass out to their classmates at the end of the party. They usually go home with plenty of goodies to share with their family!
Other reminders for this month: Please turn in your Health Care Summary signed by your health care provider before October 13th if you haven’t already. Also, anyone who has not turned in their Food Perspective forms may still do so. This is an ongoing fundraiser in which you get paid approximately $20-$35 dollars for tasting food, while the school receives $9 for your participation.
If you haven’t already discovered, we are excited to say, we have updated our website located at www.joyfulnoisepreschool.com! At our website, under Forms and Links, you will find all the forms to register your student for school, order Scholastic Books online, and the field trip permission forms. Under the category News for Parents, you will find the monthly newsletter and calendar, as well as the Yearly Calendar, information about the field trips we will be taking and how to subscribe or resubscribe automatically to have the monthly Joyful Newsletters sent directly to your email address. We hope you find our new website easy to navigate through and a good tool to find information at your fingertips.
We are also looking for donations of oversized paper from your work or at home to be used in the classrooms. Please do not go out and buy this paper. If anyone can help us out, it would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
In God’s love,
Your Joyful Noise Teaching Staff at Maple Grove
