Hello Parents!

As part of our summer curriculum, our daily schedule now has some fun new names.
Make it Monday
Thinking Tuesday
Water Wednesday
Tasty Thursday
Fun Friday
We have decided to introduce a baking enrichment class that will happen every Thursday
afternoon. This class is open to children three years and older and is completely optional. The
children will spend approximately an hour with Jessie learning practical life skills and being
introduced to the world of baking. We are asking for a donation of $20 to cover the cost of
supplies required to do the fun activities that we have planned. If you cannot give $20 or would
like to give more, we are grateful for whatever you can contribute. Below is a rough schedule put
together by Jessie of the topics that will be covered in the six weeks of classes. If you have any
questions about what is being taught or would like your child to not participate in one of the
