The first week of kindergarten was a huge success! Thank you to everyone for your teamwork, communication, and support as we kick off the year! Likely, students are coming home tired and ready for a break after the first week of school. We encourage you to enjoy the weekend as a family and we'll see your student on Monday!

Families of bus riders should keep the following in mind as we start the school year:

• Many bus drivers are new and will be learning the routes. Please allow for some delays the first few weeks of school, until drivers are familiar with their routes.

• If you’re experiencing significant delays the first few weeks (20 minutes or more), please call 651-621-6027.

• Please have your student at the bus stop at least five minutes before their expected pick-up time. This will help keep all buses as close to on-time as possible.

Community Education offers a variety of before- and after-school and non-school day activities for students. Activities may include art, chess, Rubik's cube, robotics, Spanish, sports, theater, yoga and more! Check out the upcoming offerings at your school here.

Snail Lake Kindergarten Center is a participant in the Groceries for Good Causes program at the Kowalskis in Shoreview. The Groceries for Good Causes program allows shoppers to choose which neighborhood organizations matter most to them. Simply drop your grocery receipt in one of the bins to "vote" for the organization you'd like to support, and Kowalski's will donate a percentage of their quarterly charitable giving budget based on the number of receipts in each box.
