Notes/Reminders
  • Thanks for helping to make this first week so FANTASTIC! Such a fun group of Kinders!  I’m looking forward to a wonderful year together! :-)
  • Please check your child’s folder each night and return it each day.
  • If you are not receiving emails from Karen Donato, principal, please let me know!
  • Click here to sign up for district emails.  
  • Please send your child with a small, quick afternoon snack each day.  It’s best to put this in a separate pouch.  Arlington EATS offers snacks for any child that would benefit or might have forgotten one.
  • If you would like to pre-pay for lunches you can send a check made out to the Town of Arlington- Food Services. You can also pre-pay online and also view the monthly menu. The cafeteria will send a note home when your child’s balance is low.
  • If you need to know your child’s lunch account number, send me an email.
  • School begins at 8:10.  Drop off occurs on our patio.  If you arrive after 8:15, please use the front door and check in with Ms. Vicki at the office for a late pass.
  • School ends at 2:30 on M, W, Th, F and 1:00 on Tuesdays!
  • If you have not yet… Send in a labeled ziploc bag with an extra set of clothes (including underwear) & email or send in a family photo.
  • Please double check all information is correct in the Playdate Directory- draft here.
  • Please send me an email if you do NOT want your child’s face shown online (blog and/or Twitter).
  • Thank you for sending in classroom supplies!
