Good Neighbor of the Week!
Each week I will choose a PreK student who has demonstrated good behavior and performed unsolicited acts of kindness to be the Good Neighbor of the Week.  This student will receive a certificate AND have his/her name announced by Mrs. Smith at the end of the day on Fridays.

Upcoming Events :

    BIRTHDAYS!
We LOVE birthdays in PreK!  We love special birthday snacks, too!  If you wish, you may send a special snack to school for your child's birthday. If you have questions about appropriate snacks please contact me.
Please do not send cupcakes of any kind or size - I have been teaching Pre-K long enough to tell you the children do NOT eat them at school.
We have a few children who share birthdays this year so please check the monthly calendar to see when we will sing to your child - that is the day you should send in the birthday treat.  

**********ILLNESSES/NOT FEELING WELL**********
  Please do not force your child to attend Pre-K if he/she is not feeling well.  Remember, it is only Pre-K; it is NOT a final exam in high school or college!  Those days will be here soon enough. 
As a rule, children must be fever-free for 24 hours WITHOUT ASSISTANCE FROM TYLENOL, IBUPROFEN, ETC. before returning to school.  The 24 hour rule also applies to instances of vomiting and diarrhea.  

I will always contact you by email if I have a question or concern.
If you have any questions or concerns please send an email to kjavitt@htcsyork.org 

Finally, remember to read to your child and say prayers with him/her before tucking into bed!  Establishing good routines at home prepares your child to be successful in school and in life.

Sincerely,
Mrs. Javitt
