  During flu & cold season, make sure to give
  your child medicine at home.  If your child 
  needs medication during the school day, 
  you need to talk to our  Nurse DD so 
  that she can give you a doctors  
  orders form.  We CANNOT give ANY 
  meds  in the classroom at anytime!
      Take time each and  every  
      day to  read to  and  with  your  
      child.  What  a   wonderful
       way to end  or start the  day
       and  spend  some very 
       precious  time  together!


 Please make sure that your child returns his/her book on or before Tuesday so that he/she can check out a new book.  If your child has lost or can't find his/her book, please check with our librarian to find out how to handle either your replacement of the book the book or payment to have it  replaced.   
                           		  If your child buys his/her lunch in the cafeteria  
  each day, make sure to check with the cafeteria 
  manager from time to time to make sure that your 
  child does not have any outstanding charges.  
  Don't forget that you can check each 
  days lunch menu on the APS website:
                        www.aps.edu 
              
 Also, thank you so much for the snacks 
 that you send daily.  The kids really 
 enjoy the social time and eating the  
 yummy goodies!

       A True Story About a Kindergarten Teacher:
     
     Once upon a time there was a kindergarten teacher named 
Mrs. Landolfi.  Mrs. Landolfi had well over 23 years experience in working with children.
     Mrs. Landolfi loved teaching kindergaren and loved her students very much!
     Each year there was a new group of children who were eager to learn and anxious to begin school life.  Mrs. Landolfi always wanted to make sure that each and every child felt safe, good about themselves, and that they did their best in class.  It was very important to Mrs. Landolfi that each child was to be treated like an individual and that teaching them developmentally appropriate skills was very, very, important!
     It was normal and a daily occurance to hear much laughter and some craziness coming from the classroom of Mrs. Landolfi.  Seeing happy, secure children from this classroom was expected.
     Mrs. Landolfi really did believe that the children are the future and that it was her job to give the children all of the important tools that they would need to take them into that future.
     Mrs. Landolfi and the children, lived happily ever after.
                                             NEVER THE END!
