We always look forward to recognizing and celebrating our students' birthdays during the year. If you like, you may send in a small snack or treat for the class to share on or near your child's birthday. Summer birthdays and birthdays that occur during holidays may be celebrated at a pre-scheduled time of your convenience. We ask that you make prior arrangements with the teacher before treats are brought to school. This helps us to ensure that we do not have other activities or events planned that would prevent us from being able to celebrate, in addition to limiting the number of treats in any one classroom on a given day. Because these events cannot be school parties, no beverages or party favors can be sent to school. Birthday celebrations should be a small treat, not a meal (ex. pizza). Treats must be store bought and INDIVIDUALLY PACKAGED.
Great care is taken here to be sensitive to the needs and feelings of our children. With that in mind, we ask that invitations to private birthday parties be mailed to students' homes or that parents are contacted by telephone. We cannot distribute invitations at school. Your understanding is appreciated.
