HIGH SCORERS!


These Voluntary Pre-Kindergarten Program providers have readiness rates of 300, the highest possible. That means 100 percent of the students who attended pre-K at these centers were deemed ready for kindergarten in all three components of the screening test. All of the programs were operated during the 2005-06 school year.

We only have a few openings in our VPK class for this next school year so if you plan to enroll your child, please call the preschool office immediately. We don’t want your child to miss out on attending our great VPK program.

Our center is still going through our assessments for the Guiding Stars Program. Our classrooms are already being assessed and our validation will be held on May 18th. Please keep us in your prayers as we continue to go through this process.

The preschool volunteers are doing an awesome job working with our children and our teachers. We appreciate them so much and their dedication to helping us improve our preschool.

A special Thank You to John Oberheu who came and read his wonderful books to our preschoolers. Our children really enjoyed this special treat. Also we would like to thank him for donating his two books for the children to keep in our library.

Campbell Soup Labels

We are still collecting the Campbell Soup labels so please help us out by saving those for us. We are also in need of good Christian parenting books for our new library, so if you have any you would like to donate, please contact me.

Library

Our volunteers have been working to get the books ready for the "Lending Library."  Your child will have an opportunity to check out a library book each week to bring home to have you read with them.  We are in need of some stuffed animals for the shelves especially Clifford, Barney and zoo animals.  If you have one you would like to donate to our library, please let me know.  We will also have a time each week that your child's class will visit the library for "Reading Times with Mrs. Kay."

Bethlehem Buddies Wednesdays 5:15pm to 6:00pm 4—7 year olds - Bethlehem Buddies is a special time for little children to learn about God’s love through the WORD and Bible based crafts, games, songs & drama.
