The Staff and Administration of Annunciation wish to welcome your family to the Extended Day Program. Our goal is to create a safe and friendly environment where your children can discover new interests, develop new friendships and independence, and be guided to respect themselves and the uniqueness of others.

TO ALL CARPOOL PARENTS, VISITORS, AND VOLUNTEERS

Parents using carpool, please pick up your children by 2:45PM.  Extended Day afternoon day care has recess outside at 2:45PM.  Visitors or volunteers for an after school activity please park closer to the Annuciation Church.  Orange Cones are placed in the parking lot to mark a safety zone for our Extended Day children to ensure their safety.  Thank you for your cooperation in this matter and helping to keep our children safe for play. 

 

A NOTE TO PARENTS:

You may have noticed that your Extended Day statement is a little higher than your normal amount.  The reason why the statement is higher is because it also includes June.  This will be your last statement of the year.

Please inform Extended Day if your child will be absent or attending any of the after school activities.  The best way to contact us is by phone.  Notes are great, but sometimes they don't always make it down to us.

Summer registration is currently being accepted and the registration deadline is May 16.  As stated on the registration letter, your Extended Day balance must be paid in full and in good standing before your registration will be accepted.

Coming soon will be registration for the 2008-09 school year.  

This week the Extended Day celebrates KODOMO-NO-HI (also known as children's day) on Monday May 5th with a pinata. Also, Please note that On Monday May 12, 2008 Gary Brelwick, author of "Mini Wings" will visit with the All Stars and make tiny, cool paper airplanes. The author and publisher are offering parents an exclusive offer to purchase a copy of the book for only $10.00 each. It retails for $12.95 regular price and normally costs $18.90 (including tax and shipping). Visit the Tiny Paper Airplanes website www.tinypaperairplanes.com.

We would like to go over a few reminders for Extended Day:

1. Please call and notify Extended Day if your child will not be attending on a scheduled day. You may send notes to school for the teachers upstairs but we rarely see them down here. You can also email Jeff at jeff.wisdom@annunciationmsp.org

2. A spare set of clothes and shoes are also a good idea. There are all kinds of a "accidents". In the winter children get wet through their snowpants and boots.

3. We provide a 2:30 snack everyday and if your child is here until 4:30 please bring a snack from home. Parents have done this several ways, either elave a box of snack in their lockers, designate a pocket in their backpacks for 4:30 snack or send it each day in a lunch bag.

4. We do homework each day from 2:45 to 3:30, this is time for students to read or work on projects along with daily math and phonics homework. (3rd grade geography).

5. The children may bring toys from home to play with, Pokemon and Yu Gi Oh, and baseball (trading cards) may be brought to school but may not be traded. The children are also responsible for their own toys.

6. Every day the children will have the option to have free choice, go to the gym, an art project, and the All-Star room.

7. Check mailboxes for statements and calendars. Please remember to sign your children out daily.

If you have any questions or comments, please let us know.

Thank you - the Extended Day Staff
