Welcome to 4s!!
April Dear Families, April is here and spring has sprung! This month we will be learning our addresses and we will continue working on phone numbers. Help your child to practice this important information. Many have their name on a “phone” on the wall and will want to earn their “house.” We will look at the letters Y and Z and review the alphabet as well as continue working on letter sounds and the American Sign Language alphabet. We’ll look at the numbers 17, 18 and 19. We will also be looking for signs of spring. We will continue to review shapes, colors as well as rhyming and syllables. Cutting and other fine motor skills are being practiced as well. Our Bible words are “We love Him.”1 John 4:19. We will learn more about Easter and the Good News. Some things to remember for April: -We still have openings for preschool for the 2024-2025 school year. You can contact Mrs. Anderson at 208-362-5919 for more information. -Please send your child with appropriate outerwear as well as shoes. The safest shoe will be an enclosed shoe with good soles. Please, no sandals or crocs. We want to make use of our good (but sometimes chilly) weather. Outside play is greatly enjoyed by all. -For our Service Project we will be collecting purses for the local nonprofit Purses With A Purpose. If you have a purse you are no longer using, please consider donating it to this worthy organization. -April 1 there will be no school for our MWF classes. -Our Silent Auction Fundraiser will begin April 15th and go through April 19th. We will have a variety of baskets to bid on and proceeds will benefit our Scholarship Fund. -Chapel will be held on April 17th and 18th at 9:30 and 1:00. Please join us if you can. -Save the Date! April 19th we will be hosting a Family Fun Night. Be on the lookout for a flyer with more details. -Book orders are due April 23rd.

If your child has a summer birthday, please check the calendar for the date of their celebration. You may bring a birthday snack. Appropriate snacks are listed in our handbook. Please remember that we strive to be a peanut free school and all snacks must be in store packaging. -I will be out of town for several days for the total eclipse on April 8th. Mrs. Nelson and Mrs. Stephens will be stepping up as lead teachers with assistance from Mrs. Hickox and Mrs. Hagen. I will still check emails, but if your child will be absent or you have any questions please call the school at 208-362-5919.
