Birthday Policies

Birthdays are a big deal in Room 8! When your child has a birthday, please know that I will always acknowledge it. If you would like to add to the birthday cheers & singing traditions we will experience, please consider either the gift of a book for our classroom library, or a game for our Friday Choice Time. You may wrap it up in pretty paper, and our Birthday Person can unwrap it in front of the class. Please know that this is OPTIONAL. You do not need to do anything.

Having said that, I would prefer that you not create treat bags for the children, and it is against school policy to bring in food items. Please do not use our mailboxes to send invitations, thank you notes or gifts that you couldn’t deliver personally. Children break, drop & lose things, and then I have someone feeling left out… a potential Birthday Dud! Thanks SO MUCH for granting an old lady her birthday wishes.
