May Newsletter

A Note from Our Head of School

As we enter the beautiful month of May, I am excited to share all the fun spring activities our preschoolers have been enjoying. From celebrating Week of the Young Child to releasing ladybugs on Earth Day, our students have been very busy! This month, we will be celebrating our amazing teachers during Teacher Appreciation Week, continuing our gardening projects, and learning more about nature and ways to be environmentally-friendly.

Sincerely,

Joe Rodia

Teacher Appreciation Week 
Teacher Appreciation Week is May 8-12. This is a wonderful time to express our gratitude to our amazing teachers who work tirelessly to educate and care for our students each and every day. They are the heart and soul of our preschool, and we are so fortunate to have such a dedicated and talented team. More information regarding Teacher Appreciation Week celebrations will be sent via our Weekly Newsletter.

Expectations re: Links 2 Home Message Response Time
We are pleased to hear that many of you have been enjoying the ability to communicate directly with your child’s teacher through the direct message function of our Links 2 Home app. While our teachers strive to respond to messages as quickly as possible, please keep in mind that they are primarily focused on caring for and educating their students during school hours. Teachers will make every effort to respond as soon as they are able. As always, for urgent or time-sensitive matters, please call us at 610-692-6663.

Did You Know?
Mirrors are a great way for children to learn. Infants begin to recognize expressions and track images. Our toddlers use mirrors to build their self-concept by recognizing themselves. Older preschool students learn to notice their unique characteristics, and improve their hand-eye coordination by creating self-portraits!

Special Upcoming Visits from our Sister Elementary School!
This month, we will have a visit from 5th Grade Students from our Chesterbrook Academy Elementary School that’s just around the corner. She’ll engage our Pre-K students in a robust discussion about gardening, and will begin our playground garden. We are thrilled to have an opportunity for students to participate in these rich learning experiences and get to know the students and teachers at our local Chesterbrook Academy Elementary School.
