Bright Beginnings Christian Preschool

December is a busy time of the year for all families and for our Preschool too.  This month is short, but it is packed with lots of activities.

Thanks to everyone’s efforts, our Pizza Fundraiser was a success.  A total of 482 pizzas were sold!  Jameson, from Mrs. Schanzen’s class, was our top individual pizza seller with 61 pizzas sold.  In second place was Vann, from Mrs. Smieja’s class, with 50 pizzas.  Both students will receive free pizzas and a tote bag from Pizza Corner for their hard work.  Mrs. Schanzen’s MWF am class sold the most pizzas as a class, therefore they will be having a pizza party in their classroom.  Mrs. Smieja’s MWF am class sold the second most pizzas as a class, therefore they will also be having a pizza party in their classroom.  The money raised from this fundraiser will go towards classroom equipment and guest speakers throughout the school year.

No school on December 3^rd.  Osseo School District is off for report card recording.

On December 16^th & 17^th the preschoolers will be performing their Christmas Program which starts at 11:00 for the morning classes and 2:15 for the afternoon classes.  All family members and friends are invited to watch this performance.  Refreshments will be served afterwards in the gym.  Students are to come to school at their regularly scheduled time on this day.

In the past, we have had a small gift exchange (not to exceed $5.) at the Happy Birthday Jesus Party.  This party will be held on December 21^st and 22^nd this year.  If you wish to participate in this exchange, please purchase a gift for another child of your child’s same gender.  Label the gift girl or boy and whom it is from.

We are beginning to receive inquires about registration for the 2011-2012 preschool year.  All current families will have priority registration.  On January 18^th we open registration to the public.  More information will follow in the January Joyful Newsletter.

There will be no school on December 23^rd through January 2^nd during the Holiday Season.  School resumes on January 3^rd and 4^th.

Peace be with you all!
