Hooray for our Fabulous 4's Preschool !
Welcome to the 4’s Preschool!!
Here are just a few reminders to our returning families, and some new information for our brand new families to preschool. We hope that you find this helpful as we begin this new year of learning together.

Preschoolers should wear their uniforms and bring their preschool book bags beginning on our first day of school, 8/31. No snack needed until Friday, 9/2.
You must walk your child into the preschool foyer,……
BUT PLEASE DO NOT WALK YOUR CHILD INTO THE CLASSROOM. Your children are now 4’s and should be comfortable with this transition. For our new preschoolers, we have found this to be the easiest way to learn successful separation.
Say your goodbyes and let us handle the rest. WE will call you if we need to. We promise.
BOOKBAGS- Your child should be using the book bag he/she received last year in the 3’s Preschool.** If you are new to our preschool, you will receive a CTTCS Preschool book bag for your child at Back to School Night. Please write your child’s name and help him/her decorate the bag with patches, fabric paint, sequins,…have fun!!! Please have your child bring his/her book bag to school every day beginning on the first day of school-
(Teddy&Me Day).
SCHOOL UNIFORMS
Children should begin wearing school uniforms on Teddy and Me Day.
PICTURES
Just a heads up... we are going to need a picture of your child for labeling in the classroom.
You can bring them to Back to School Night or send them in to school in your child’s take home folder.
YOU WILL NEED TO PURCHASE FOR YOUR CHILD:
A DAILY TAKE HOME FOLDER
Your child will need to have a folder to use as a take home folder. You may purchase any kind of folder that your child likes. Please label your child’s name on the upper right corner in large letters. We will use this folder to send any important school information home to you each day.
A SNACK BAG (lunch tote)
The students will need to bring a simple snack to school each class day beginning on the FIRST FULL PRESCHOOL DAY.
DROP OFF / PICK UP TIMEs for Preschool
PRESCHOOL TIMES ARE: AM @ 7:45 - 10:45 PM@ 11:55-2:55.
Please note that when you drop off your child inside the preschool foyer, your child should hang up his/her jacket and book bag on the assigned coat hook, place his/her snack bag in the wagon located near the door and place his/her TAKE HOME FOLDER in the folder bin.
We will dismiss out of the same Preschool Door.
*IMPORTANT
*Please let us know in writing if your child has any ALLERGIES/HEALTH CONCERNS that we should know. The school nurse will also be sending home a Health Form for you to complete and return to school.
*Please let us know ASAP if your child goes by a shortened or another name other than his/her birth name. (ie. Christopher-Chris, Alexandria- Lexi, Joseph-Joey)
Please note what name your child will write and read as his/her name. This will make name recognition and writing much less confusing for your child and for us, too! You can send me an e-mail at [email protected] with this or any other important information.
COMMUNICATION
Always remember that if you have any questions or concerns, please let me know. I can be reached by dropping a note into your child’s take home folder, you can talk with me at dismissal time, or you can e-mail me @ [email protected]. If you need to get in touch with me right away, you can call the school office @ 838-8850.
???QUESTIONS ??? If you have any questions, you may e-mail me. I do check my e-mail throughout the summer. You may also call the main office at 838-8850 if you need immediate assistance.
Thank you so much in advance for your support. We are looking forward to seeing you this August. Have a wonderful summer!
Sincerely, Mrs. Laura Allison and Ms. Lorraine Cupeto
