A Note from Our Leadership Team
Dear Families,
October brings chilly mornings, vibrant leaves, and so much seasonal energy to our school! We’re leaning into autumn all month long, exploring nature’s changes through creative art, sensory bins, science experiments, and more. Plus, we’re gearing up for favorite fall events like our fall open houses, fall festival, trunk or treat, fall picture day, and pumpkin painting, where our students are sure to have fun and make new memories. As always, thank you for trusting us with your child’s growth and learning.
Sincerely,
Kim Cantermen – Principal
Hailey Shaw – Assistant Principal
Kaytlin Weinberg – Office Administrator
Online Family Communication
Family communication and partnership are among our top priorities. In addition to this newsletter, our website’s “For Parents” section includes links to our menu, monthly calendar, and school year calendar. If you’re not currently receiving photos and daily reports for your child, you can easily start by downloading the Links 2 Home app on your phone from the Apple App Store or Google Play Store. After downloading, you can register with the same email address that you used to enroll your child in our school.
Family Survey Launching Soon
Our family survey will be launching the week of October 19. This is your opportunity to confidentially share what you love about our school community, as well as areas where we can continue to grow and improve. We value your feedback and appreciate your time.

We are hosting three Fall Open House events this October and would love for you to invite your friends and family for a visit!

Family Referral Bonus
Do you know a colleague who has recently had a baby, a friend in need of care who just relocated to the area, or a family member who is seeking a new preschool for their child? When you refer a friend and they enroll, you’re eligible for a free week of tuition. Ask us for details!
Fall Cubby Refresh
The days will soon be getting crisp! Please supply an extra set of weather-appropriate clothes for your child and a jacket for chilly days.
