Good Afternoon Kindergarten Families,
It was so nice to see so many of you at our meet and greet this past Friday. If you were unable to attend, please be sure to drop by the kindergarten classroom tomorrow. You’ll be able to drop off your supplies, find your child’s seat and backpack hook, and fill out a few informational forms. I will be on campus until about 4:00pm. Please contact me if you need to come later than 4:00pm.
Transitioning to a new school is a big step, and I know it can be overwhelming at times. I am always here to help! As a reminder, our first day of school is Wednesday, August 21st. Students may wear free dress during the first week of school. Kindergarten will be dismissed at 12:00pm for the first two weeks. The first full day of kindergarten is Tuesday, September 3rd.
Students may be dropped off starting at 7:30am each morning. Please park, and walk your child to the class. They will hang up their backpack and sit on the blue bench outside the classroom until 7:50am when we line up for morning assembly. During dismissal, kindergarten parents must park and walk to the classroom. You may park on the street or in the school parking area. Please enter though the Berendo St. gate and exit the 161st St. gate.
Kindergarten will not attend until Friday, October 18th. Mass uniform is required starting this day.
Please save the date for our Back to School Night, on September 5th at 6:30pm. The Vicky Marsha Uniform Company will be on campus that day. Please refer to pages 46-49 of the Parent and Student Handbook if you have questions regarding the dress code. The handbook can be found online: http://www.stanthonygardena.org/wp-content/uploads/2018/04/Parent-and-Student-Handbook-SY-2016-2017-4.24.18.pdfI highly recommend you label your child’s sweaters and jackets.
Please do not hesitate to contact me if I can be of assistance. We are looking forward to a joyous year!
Thank you,
Ms. Strohm
