WELCOME:)

Mrs. Paonessa and I would like to welcome our new Pre-k students and families. We're very excited about this year. There are lots of fun activities planned! If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me: j_lemke@wny.twcbc.com

Specials Schedule

Lunch: 11:30 (If your child is buying, please place $2.25 in his/her poly folder) *Snacks may be purchased on Fridays only:)

PM Dismissal @ 3:10. Parents may park in the fire hall parking lot. Teachers walk students across the street to meet parents. 

Homework will be assigned once a week to reinforce everything your child is learning in our classroom and to help further prepare students for Kindergarten. Homework must be done in pencil and students must write their name on their own. Please do not write it for them! Depending on the homework, crayons, scissors, or glue may be needed. 

 Don't forget to turn in your SunnyD, Box Tops, and Campbell's labels to help our classroom and school receive new educational materials. Labels can be turned in anytime throughout the year. Thanks:)
