St. Peter CCC Preschool November 2011 St. Peter’s CCC Preschool Parent Board
Membership:Every family is a member of the Parent Board. All parents are invited to attend meetings to voice their ideas to help guide the program. The Parent Board is not a decision making body. Meetings and Minutes:Meetings will be held in September, November, January, March, and May. An agenda will be sent to all families one week before the meeting. Minutes will be sent to all families as part of the monthly newsletter. Committees:Committees will be created on a need basis. For example, if it is decided to repaint the walls, a parent committee may be created to propose to the church board, gather quotes, and/or do the work.
Kindness Curriculum: During October all the classes talked about pets and what we have to do to take care of them. We also discussed the animals in the shelter. Each class made scarves for the PAWS shelter. We are collecting newspaper, towels, blan-kets, dryer sheets, Dawn, or paper towels. If you wish to donate, please send these things in by November 10th. For November, we will be talking about helping children for Christmas. We will read the story “The Little Drum-mer Boy” by Jack Ezra Keats. We will relate the story to how we can all help others with little by giving them a shoebox of toys. The children will be bringing home a flyer about Operation Christmas Child the first week of November. This program has the children donate a shoe box full of things for children in Africa for Christmas. These boxes will be due by November 17th.
