Safety Measures in December

From the Peninsula School District:

In light of recent events in the media regarding potential, yet unsubstantiated, threats to student safety in our district and others in our region, and the world-wide discussion concerning the Mayan calendar, we understand there are some concerns over safety at our schools tomorrow. 

Our schools will demonstrate increased awareness to ensure all students and staff feel safe.  We have been working closely with local law enforcement who will be providing a heightened presence, as well.

We understand parents’ sensitivity to school safety and trust your best judgment. If you decide to keep your children home, please notify the attendance office.

We appreciate your patience and concerns and want you to know that the safety of students and staff will continue to be a focus.

Front Office Sign In

Dear Vaughn Preschool Families,

In the wake of yesterday's tragedy, I wanted to address an issue that I have noticed that last few weeks and now I am kicking myself for not bringing it up sooner.  It's unfortunate that we wait sometimes to address issues until something like this happens and our eyes are opened, bringing us to action.

In the last few weeks I have been noticing more and more parents failing to sign in at the front office when dropping their children off at preschool.  I have spoken to some of you directly and given kind reminders, but now I think it is appropriate to address all families.  We are very fortunate to be able to run our preschool within Vaughn Elementary/Peninsula School District and we need to do our part in following all of their rules and safety procedures.  I'm sure that all schools nation wide will be tightening their front door/front office policies and just ask that we do our part in following the rules and encouraging others to do the same.

Thank you again for all you do for our Preschool!

Evergreen Families

 

    Hope each and everyone of you have a wonderful holiday season. 

    During the month of December we are going to be reading two Nursery Rhymes, first will be Twinkle,Twinkle little star and second will be I'm a little teapot.  We will also be reading the Ginger bread Man.  We will read several different versions  to see how they are the same. 

     We will be having a ginger bread cookie day which you are all invited to come too.  It will be held on the 20th during class time.

    Once again I hope you all have a wonderful holiday season and thank you for sharing your children with me.
