Drop off

My classroom opens at 8:35 a.m. 

We begin learning at 8:45 a.m.

Please have your child place their folder in the box on the table.

Please sign your child in and fill out the form.

Please say your goodbyes in the hall and let your child enter the class on their own.

(After the first few days your child will know what their routine will be and I will be there to help them.)

Pick up

Class dismisses at 1:00 p.m.   Children not picked up by 1:05 will be taken to the school office to wait for their parents and a fee may be charged.

Once the door is open, I will call the children to the door one by one to dismiss to parents waiting in the hall. 

** Folders **


Every day I will send home a yellow folder with your child. Their behavior chart will be in the folder along with any paper/art work we do (please remove any papers/art work). Please initial the behavior chart and return the folder the next school day. There will be a basket on the sign-in table for your child's folder. Please have your child place the folder in the basket before they enter the classroom.

** E-mail **


Click on the link at the top of this page and it will guide you through.

** Computer Lab **



We will:


Learn parts of the computer

Develop mouse skills (fine motor)

Develop hand/eye coordination


Introduce thinking games


*Memory Games

*Deductive Reasoning Games

*Patterning (promotes success in math)

** Snacks **


A small snack is provided every day about an hour after school starts. The school provides the snack. If you want to send a special snack for everyone, that is fine and encouraged, just please let me know ahead of time.


** Lunches **


Please pack a lunch for your child. We do not have access to a refrigerator or microwave so please pack accordingly.

Please make sure to pack utensils, cut up items that are too big, and "pre-tear" the tops of cheese sticks.

Our goal is to have your child able to open all their lunch items unassisted by the holiday break.

** Back Packs **


Please send a back-pack for your child with a complete change of clothes in it. I realize everyone is potty trained at this age, but accidents do happen, sudden illnesses can occur or a juice box may attack!  Please label each one of your child's items.

** Illnesses **

Please remember Lakeland's policy on illnesses.  If your child has had a fever within 24 hours of the next start of the school day, please keep them at home.  This means completely fever free.  Not fever free if taking Tylenol or Advil.  During this time of the year there are a lot of viruses going around and we want to keep everyone well.  The same 24 hours rule applies to vomiting and diarrhea. 

** Attire **


The preschool students are not required to wear the LCA uniform. Please send your child to school in comfortable clothes and shoes. Closed toed shoes are best since our playground is covered with wood chips. We will be doing art projects and we will do our best to protect clothes, but as we all know kids are kids and stains happen.


Please purchase a LCA t-shirt from Parker Uniform (link below). It is navy blue and has the LCA crest on it. This shirt is required wear on all field trips.

** Show and Tell **

We have show and tell every Friday.  This is one of my favorite activities!  Please have your child bring ONE item from home that can fit in their back-pack to tell about.  Please do not send any kind of play weapon or scary toy.



** Chapel **

Chapel is designed to be a lot like church so kids need to be on their best behavior. Please try to be on time on Wednesdays. If we have already left for chapel you will need to bring your child up to the second floor to join their class. You are invited to join us for Chapel at any time, however, you will not be able to sit with your child. Parents stand or sit in the back so that our kids can have room to participate.
