The YMCA Swimming and Family Center Program

Swim and Family Center Program

This school year we will be offering an addition to our swim program at the Circleville YMCA.  We will be going to the Y every other Thursday and half of our students will be swimming and half of our students will be playing in the Family Center.  We will alternate our students every Thursday so they each get to participate in both swimming and playing in the Family Center each month.  Starting this Thursday, November 1, our entire school will be going to the YMCA from 12:30 to 1:30 with the buses leaving at 12:00 and returning to school at 2:00.  We will be eating an early lunch on those days so we can be ready to board the buses at 12:00.

We will send home a letter with your child’s Swim/Family Center Schedule until Christmas.  Before Christmas break we will send home the entire schedule for the rest of the school year.

Conferences and our Election Results

I have scheduled most of our conferences and I am working on getting the last few set up for the next week or so.  I appreciate your willingness to take the time to talk things over about your child and their preschool year.  A lot happens within the school year and it's great to have an understanding of where we're headed and to share thoughts and ideas. I am very thankful that I can meet with all of you!

                                      



We have our election results tallied and our two groups are called, The Scooby Doo Club and the Busy Bee Club.  I will send home a paper with your child to let you know which club your child is currently in and what the goals of the club entail.  We're excited about each club and what we can learn!

School Pictures and Dates to Remember

School Pictures will be on Thursday, October 11.

We will have school next week on Monday, October 15 and Tuesday, October 16.  We will be closed the rest of the week for Pumpkin Show.  We will be back in school on Monday, October 22 and the bookmobile will be coming to school that day.

We are looking at starting our swimming program at the YMCA in November.  We are working out the details with the Y and we'll send home a swim schedule as soon as that has been confirmed with them.
