oooooooh BOY!

THANK YOU!

What a lovely day!

I hope this sun stays out for the rest of the day! Did anyone else hear that's supposed to snow this weekend? I hope not....I mean, I love snow and all, but I don't know if I'm ready for it yet.
 Anywho, the ballet recital is today at 4:30 in rm100! If your child is interested in joining the next ballet class it starts in February! There's still room!

Swim starts today!

Oh boy! I'm so excited about our swim program starting today! The kids will change here at Ella Baker,get on the bus, go to the 135th street Y and swim! They swim for about 45min-1hour, get dressed, and then head back to the school. They should be back at Ella Baker around 5:30-6, depending on traffic! Questions? Gimme a call and let me know!
 Also, don't forget about the extra ballet recital this Friday in rm100 at 4:30pm! Hooray!
 ALSO! Since there's been a lice scare with the little ones, we've had to remove pretend play items, carpets, and our beloved super old couch. The carpets are going to be cleaned, I'm getting brand new bean bag chairs, but I just can't afford a new couch.
 Do you know anyone who needs to get rid of a couch? We'll take it! Have old toys? We'll love to take them off your hands! We've had to disgard most of our toys and would be ever so grateful if you could donate to our program. Thank you in advance for all your support!

Rain Rain Go away...

It's not that cold, but wet! So that means the prek,k,and 1st grade will not go outside, but instead hang out in the basement or extra grouptime in the basement. Please check the message boards for exact time changes!

It's icky outside!

Ew, it's not quite raining, but it's definitely not sunny.....what to do? Well, 4th grade and up are going to the 67th street library across the street after snack today and will stay over there until 4:45. The prek and kindergarten will go for a walk and the first grade will be in the basement during their "playground" time. There will be notices posted!

Change of Plans!

 I know SWIM was supposed to start today, but it's been moved to next week! I know I know, a total bummer, right? Don't worry, an extra swim is added at the end, so you're not really missing anything. Also, this gives you a chance to make sure you have written your child's name on their towels,bathing suits,and swimming caps. Please call for any questions!

Moving right along...

 January tution is offically late! There is a $10 late fee attached to any monthly payment made this week! We're sorry for the inconvience, but it is written in your contract that there is a late fee attached after the grace period. Also, don't forget about the half day!
