As John Andrew Holmes wisely said,
"Never tell a young person that something cannot be done. God may have been waiting
centuries for somebody ignorant enough of the impossible to do that thing."

Letter to parents

Hi Parents,
To keep everyone updated please note:

1- I would like to upgrade our curriculum with a new program called Reading A-Z (take a "test drive" at ReadingA-Z.com). It is a powerful addition that we can use to better prepare our children for kindergarten. Since the state of Nevada is recently ranked last in education they have raised the bar to help improve our system. Raising the bar means that what our children used to learn in 1st grade is now implemented in Kindergarten.

In order to keep your tuition at the same price and not put a "ding" in my budget we have calculated that if everyone contributes $2 we can purchase the classroom edition. I will download everything on my computer and have it available to print and use for all the children in the upcoming years. You may donate cash or add the $2 on your next tuition payment. (just leave Ed a little note or indicate on the memo line that the extra is for the A-Z reading program.

2- Love and Logic refresher or 5 week class: I have sent home a flyer for the next 5 week course. For those who have not taken it yet, please make every effort to do so. When we are all on the same page it really makes life easier for you and your child! If you would like to take the refresher course I am offering it at the Henderson Multi-generational Facility on Green Valley Parkway from 6-8 pm THIS Thursday March 15 (childcare is available for $2 !) and Thursday, May 3 6-8 pm also same location. Cost: $10

3- Watch for the the "Work and Family" articles to be forwarded from Jan, Feb., and March . Sorry for the delay, they were buried in my email. Great info, hope you enjoy!

4- Weather is warming up, probably a good idea to start applying sunblock again. Per Health Department we will not be applying.
