Dear Rodman Preschool Families,

We hope it was a delightful weekend! Friendly reminder, this week we have parent/teacher conferences Tuesday (11/19) and Wednesday (11/20). Wednesday will be an early release (11:35am) in lieu of these conferences. Please reach out to you child's teacher if you have any questions regarding your scheduled date and time. Teachers are looking forward to engaging with you about your child and progress.

Message from cafeteria: *Change in lunch menu Monday* - kitchen serving mini waffles instead of French toast sticks.

Book Highlight of the Week

"Nelly Gnu and Daddy Too" is a charming children's book written and illustrated by Anna Dewdney. This delightful story centers around Nelly Gnu and her special day spent with her daddy. Together, they embark on an adventure of creativity and construction, highlighting the joys of father-daughter bonding. With its warm, expressive illustrations and rhyming text, the book captures the essence of love and cooperation, making it a perfect read for young children and their parents. "Nelly Gnu and Daddy Too" not only entertains but also subtly teaches the values of working together and the significance of family moments.
