Due to allergies, please refrain from sending snacks that contain any kind of nut. Thank you!

We will snack in the afternoon each day (our lunch time is 11:30). It is not necessary for you to send a snack with your child, as the leader provides it each day.  Thank you for sending a leak-proof water bottle with your child each day.

Next Week Events

Welcome back to school and Happy New Year to you all 🥳!!


I can't wait to see everyone tomorrow morning! We have had a wonderful time with friends and family and I am now excited and ready to begin 2024 with your children. I look forward to hearing all about each child's time off and discussing what is to come in our new year. 


We will begin writing Personal Narratives in Writers' Workshop, learning about Pushes and Pulls in Science, Making Connections and Inferences during Daily 5 and addition and subtraction in Math. As you can see, we will be getting right to the business of learning. That is, after we enjoy time together reconnecting 😊.


During the winter months, please feel free to leave a pair of gym shoes at school. We don't want children wearing boots all day (particularly on the rug we sit on). 


Please be sure to --

  • Send a leak-proof, water bottle each day
  • Dress your child for the weather of the day-snow pants, boots, hat and mittens
  • Empty your child's folder each day

Thank you for returning Library books by Tuesday of each week. 


Please be sure your child has gym shoes each Friday.

  Kindergarten Connection Your child's week with Mrs. DeLapa                                                             Last Week The Solar Eclipse was such a neat experience on Monday. We are grateful to Mrs. Francis, a science teacher at Upton Middle School for receiving a grant to purchase a pair of glasses for every student in SJ Schools. I think it is a memory our children will hold on to and enjoy retelling. I hope your child came home full of excitement and was able to tell you all about it. On Thursday your child came home with a bound book that he/she helped to illustrate and create. Each of our Brown kindergartners drew a picture and gave a story starter to a SJHS Child Development student from Ms. Allen's class. On Thursday morning all 40 (2 classes) students came to r...

  Kindergarten Connection Your child's week with Mrs. DeLapa                               Last Week I hope the Gingerbread houses made it home in good shape (I realize the chances of that are slim 😏). We certainly had a great time making them together. Thank you again to the volunteers who came to help. We could not have done it without you.  November homework and Book-It calendars are welcome back for a trip to the treasure chest and Pizza Hut certificate. Reminder that your child's name must be on it as well as your signature.  Snack and Leaders Your child will come home with the Leader bag the night before his/her leader day.

  Kindergarten Connection Your child's week with Mrs. DeLapa                                                             Last Week Last week flew by! Ice skating was a blast from what I hear. I was so sorry to miss this great event. Mrs. Gideon took some good pictures and really enjoyed the day with your wonderful children. A huge thank you goes out to all the parents who came to help get skates on and tied, help with skating and then getting them off again. We just couldn't do fun things like this without the amazing support from all of you! It was fun welcoming Hudson into our class. I was so proud of our students as they worked to make him feel at home with us. Getting a new student is exciting and fun 😀!
