March News

First let me say how happy I am to be back. I have missed your children dearly and can't wait to get back into a routine. I am coming back to work part time for a while and will return to my normal office hours beginning on April 13th. Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions or concerns. If I am not in please leave a message and I will get back to you as soon as possible. My hours will be available at the office if you need to come in to see me. Second, a huge Thank-you to Pam Phipps for stepping up while I was gone. She has done a great job of keeping things running smoothly while I was away. March's special elective is a Pottery Class with Ann from Starglazers. Ann will be here on Thursday March 19th if you signed your child up. I have posted a sign on the Landing Door for the times each grade will create their pottery. Times are also available at the office. This month your children will be studying the theme "God's Wonderful Promise". The Bible story this month is Jesus Calms the Storm from Mark 4:35-41.

Please make sure to drive carefully in our parking lot. Many parents and children come and go in the morning as well as people in and out of the church. Please abide by the speed limit and watch out for pedistrians. Thanks!
