From the Classrooms: St. Joseph's Room: Brrr! Cold Weather is upon us so please dress your child in weather appropriate clothing. Make sure that your child has a winter coat, hat, mittens and they may wear snow pants and boots. We go out every day to enjoy the fresh air. Please make sure your child has a change of clothes and that they are marked clearly with their name on each item of clothing. This is the classroom where we are on our way to learn to use the potty, so plenty of extra change of clothes marked clearly with your child’s name. Please continue to check the classroom door for upcoming messages regarding the classroom and all school events. A special thank you to all the parents who have donated items to our classroom and classroom parties. Your generosity is greatly appreciated. If your child is having a birthday we ask that they buy a book for the room or something from the Birthday Wish List Tree, we will make the birthday treat with the children in the room. God bless, St. Therese's Room: We have added a new member to the staff Ms. Alouisa Thames (Allie), she will be assisting in our classroom, she was previously a novice with the Carmelite Sisters and we are happy to have her with us in the classroom. We would like to welcome Ms. Alicia to our room she worked at Carmelite many years ago and is back helping in various rooms and is now going to help out St. Therese’s room. Sr. Anna Maria is needed in the convent at this time but will fill in various times during the week. Reminders:
Thank you for all your wonderful help Ms. Emily, Ms. Dolores, Ms. Tammy, and Ms. Allie Bl. Maria Teresa's Room: We are presently doing assessments and will be having conferences in February, look for the sign up sheet at door. A quick reminder, please remember to have a change of clothes for your child that is marked clearly with their name. Please remember that we try to get out each day and to dress your child appropriately, with mittens, hat and boots. Please make sure that your child’s locker is cleaned out each week of papers and that cubby cots go home once a month to be washed. Thank you, St. John of the Cross: We will begin parent story reading the month of January. Parent’s will come to the classroom in the afternoon after snack and bring their child’s favorite book to share and read to the class. Please sign up. Assessments and conferences are starting January 16, look for the sign-up sheets. God bless,

We really appreciate your thoughtfulness and generosity. We know it is cold outside and some days we have to stay in but we try to go out each and every day even for a short time, so please dress your child appropriate with hat and mittens and layer their clothes for winter. We do not close because of snow; the sisters faithfully walk over from the convent and open the center.
