Dear SKCEE Families,
This was an exciting week! Our kindergarten classes celebrated the one hundredth day in school. There were math activities, fun costumes, and incredibly creative projects to demonstrate our learning so far. We hope you enjoy our pictures and videos attached below.
I would like to give a big “shout out” to everyone who participated in the American Heart Association Challenge. Thank you Mrs. Whatmore for organizing this event and finding a fun way to bring us together as a community. The student that raised the most money was able to pie me in the face! We hope you enjoy our pictures and video and pictures of this event attached below as well.
Picture Day & “We Love SKCEE Week” Update
Due to scheduling conflicts picture day will be moved to April 7th, 2021 and April 8th 2021. Hopefully, this will provide families with more time to prepare and plan for the event. In addition, the “We Love SKCEE Week” has been rescheduled to the week of March 8th, 2021. We look forward to seeing students show their school spirit, and the events planned by our PTA. More information about “We Love SKCEE Week” can be found below.
Please refer to your students weekly classroom communication about important upcoming events. Please feel free to sign up for office hours with me if you have any questions or need further support. Have an amazing weekend!
Sincerely,
Matthew Johnson M.Ed.
Principal of Stephen Knight Center for Early Childhood Education
Upcoming Important Dates
Spring Picture Day (New Dates)Lifetouch will be here on April 7th and 8th taking spring pictures. Due to COVID-19 we will not have traditional class pictures. They will be doing a classroom composite picture instead that will include a picture of every student and their teacher(s). This will be included free in every individual picture package purchased or you can order it separately online.
Helpful Tip: Ordering a basic individual picture package with the free classroom composite is less expensive than ordering the classroom composite separately. .
New SKCEE Website – updates
Have you had a chance to check out our new website yet? If you have, you might have noticed the pictures on the website need to be updated. We have created a Google Form inviting you to provide your approval for use of your student’s picture on the website, social media and in the building. The form will take less than 5minutes to complete. Please let us know your thoughts. Thank you in advance for taking the time to complete this important step. SKCEE Picture/Video Approval Form
