From time to time, we may have a need for supplies if parents would like to contribute. This is not mandatory but is greatly appreciated.  This month we can use: Glue sticks Crayola watercolors Masking tape Lysol Disinfecting Wipes Thanks to all who have donated so far. Your response has been great.

Tuition payments should be received by the first of every month and no later than the seventh regardless of the date on the check or money order. The corresponding Payment Coupon should accompany monthly tuition payments. For those of you who started in September and paid the first and last month's tuition in August, April will be your last payment. SPECIAL NOTICE FROM OUR TREASURER: Use Payment Coupon (ask if you need new ones) “No Cash” please. Checks only ! Call me if payment issues arise (Joanie Elbourn 978-632-4731). Please DO NOT mail your tuition to the Treasurer’s address. You may use the mailbox at school to deposit your tuition, or mail it to our school’s address: 72 Ryan St./Gardner, MA 01440.

Outdoor Clothing:   Please dress your child to play outside, as we will try to get out as often as possible, as the weather permits (hat, mittens, gloves, warm jacket). In very cold weather, it might be wise to have the children dress warmly with an extra sweater or sweatshirt. Please update your child's backpack with the appropriate size and a weather-related change of clothes. Also, when boots are worn to school, please send in shoes, sneakers or slippers (with soles or grips) to be worn inside. Boots make "hot feet" when worn too long. Put boots in the hall where you first enter. You may want to clip them together with a clothespin with your child's name on it, or write names in the boots. On snowy days, please do not send your child into school with a snowsuit for outside play. We will let you know in advance when we plan a snow play day.Therefore, children only need to wear jackets, hats, mittens and boots to school...no snowsuits.   PLEASE remember to put your child’s name inside his/her coat, jacket and hat, and to tuck mittens and hat in one of the sleeves when hanging it up. Children can't always remember which are theirs. Even if your child’s coat/jacket has a hood attached, please send them in with a hat because it is hard for them to see with just a hood while playing, especially on the big wheels.
