Book Fair

We are excited for our Book Fair! Your child's teacher will send you their class shopping time and you are invited to shop with your child then. Please note that all visitors will sign in directly before and sign out directly after, in the office. All visitors will need their Driver’s License to sign in.

If you are unable to join your child at their shopping time, you are welcome to load money onto their e-wallet so that they can shop without you. There will be volunteers available to help them.

The Book Fair will also be open during Open House, on the evening of March 11, if you would like to shop with them then.

You can set up an eWallet for your child by visiting this link.

Cougar Trade Days

Cougar Trade Days is coming soon! A green sign-up form came home with your child. If you and your child would like to participate, you can complete the form and return it to your child's teacher. If you have lost the form, a digital copy is provided below that you can print.

2025 honesty_kinder_family_newsletter.pdf

It’s not always easy to be honest in our words, actions, or thoughts with others or with ourselves. Practicing Honesty with ourselves allows us to identify emotions, be aware of our emotions, and manage our emotions. This month's focus for Kindergarten is practicing Honesty through identifying emotions.

Conversation Starters:

Can you share or show me what Honesty is?
Why is it important to know how something makes you feel?
