Important Reminders
** Thank you to all of the families that were able to support Bransford Spirit Night at BoomerJacks. It was nice to see some of you enjoying time with your family and friends. If you weren't able to participate, there will be another spirit night on March 25th at Portillo's. Look for more details as the date gets closer.
** Tuesday, February 4th is the 100th day of school! We will enjoy various One Hundredth Day activities across our curriculum. We will read stories, draw, write, and of course, count to 100 during the day. Show and Tell for the week will be to share a collection of 100 small items. Your child can start looking around the house for 100 things to bring. Examples of collections could be pennies, beans, beads, paperclips, cereal pieces, etc. We look forward to seeing everyone's items.
** Mark your calendar for the Bransford Valentine Carnival. The carnival will be on Thursday, February 13th from 8:50 - 9:20. Please join us and share this fun time with your student. After the carnival, students will say "see you later" to their family members that came to the carnival and head to their classroom for a delicious Valentine snack.
** The children will be exchanging Valentine cards at school on February 13th. Please send 21 cards to school for your child"s classmates. Your child can sign each one with his or her name. The cards can be addressed to "My friend" or left blank. This will help the sharing process go more smoothly for your child. We will be decorating sacks to hold the Valentine cards during class. So please don't send a separate box for your child's cards. The sack, decorated in class, will be easier for the students to carry and to put their cards in when they are sharing with each other.
** Remember, no school on February 14th and February 17th. February 14th will be a campus holiday. February 17th will be a Staff Learning Day.
** Giddy Up! On Friday, February 28th, PreK will have a Western Day as we conclude our Texas unit. Your child may dress up in their best western outfit. Remember to pack tennis shoes for recess and gym, if your learner wears boots to school. Toy guns, knives, and other pretend weapons are not allowed at school.
Snacks/ Water/ Bottles/ Lunches
Students may bring a lunch from home or get a hot lunch from the cafeteria. You may out more information about cafeteria lunches by using the following link.
Backpack/ Extra Clothes/ Supplies
School supplies are provided for the PK classroom, so there is no need to send any extra.
Tennis Shoes/Clothing
Keep in mind we have lots of playtime outside and do messy art projects, so keep that in mind when choosing school outfits. We recommend that special accessories like umbrellas, rain boots, hats, scarves, mittens, etc. be kept at home as they are often lost at school.
