Kindergarten Class of 2022 Graduation Highlights Click Photo for Highlights                    Dear Parents, Your child has started school in the Meadows Valley Kindergarten class. For some who have not attended preschool, this is his or her first experience with school. Kindergarten is a very important part of your child’s education. Kindergarten is a well-planned educational program with definite objectives and goals. It is an introduction to school life. During this first year, the school is interested in helping your child become socially and emotionally secure, to find delight in discovering and creating, to acquire appropriate learning skills, and to develop a positive attitude toward the school experience. With your help, we hope to be successful in helping your child develop to his/her maximum potential.                                                       Mrs. Moyer                                 Click on the Pencil to view Mrs. Moyer's Rules & Expectations.                                                                            Click Here to View the Meadows Valley Elementary Handbook

What’s New in Mrs. Moyer's Class

   

SHOW AND TELL: Your child will have a specific week when he or she is the V.I.P. That is, the Very Important Person. That week, he or she can bring in items to share with the class. We will notify you when it is your child’s turn, to give more details. If it is not your child’s week to show and tell, and your child would like to bring something that goes along with what we are studying, that would be great. I discourage bringing toys to school. We have plenty of educational toys here, and plenty of work to do, and often toys from home get misplaced or broken, sometimes creating bad feelings. Thanks.                                                        Mrs. Moyer     Click Here for Kindergarten Core Knowledge Information

TIME: We have only one session of kindergarten lasting three hours each day. School starts at 8:00 and ends at 11:00. MORNINGS: Kindergartners need to wait with their parents or other students in the lunchroom until the first bell rings. The time in the morning before the bell rings is a time for teachers to set up the room and prepare materials for the day, or we may have staff meetings or training sessions at that time. Students are not allowed to be in the halls or classrooms unsupervised. There will be supervision in the cafeteria starting at 7:30. Breakfast is served for a cost of $1.00 starting at 7:40 if you would like your child to eat here. If you need an application for free or reduced breakfast, please ask for a form in the main office. PICK-UP: Kindergarten ends at 11:00 each day. There is no bus leaving the school at that time. Please be prompt to pick up your child because the kindergarten teacher needs to eat lunch and prepare for preschool in the same room. If anyone else is picking up your child, please call or send a note or I will not release your child to that person.

       

	SNACKS: The cooks graciously provide a snack for the kindergartners free of charge every day. If you ever wish to send a special snack with your child or snacks for the whole class, that would be fine. Please let me know if your child has any food allergies. Milk is available every day from the kitchen for a charge of 5 cents a day. Please plan to pay for the whole year. The cost for the entire year is $8.50.

                                

DO YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS OR CONCERNS? Call me at school 347-2411. Thank you for your time and I look forward to another productive year with your students.                               Sincerely,                          Mrs. Linda Moyer Click Here to E-Mail Mrs. Moyer	IMPORTANT PARENT INFORMATION: Volunteers...Click Here Click Here...Supply List
FRIDAY FOLDERS: Starting next week, artwork, papers, and important notices will be sent home in a large manila envelope entitled: Friday Folder – every Friday. Please look through the work and notes inside the folder, sign the front showing me that you read and looked through it, and then send the folder back every Monday morning. There is room for you to write comments or ask questions. If your child forgets the Friday Folder, I will send his or her work and notes stapled together, but there will be no way for you to sign or write comments. I will issue a new Friday Folder every nine weeks, if it is needed.	BIRTHDAYS: These special days will be acknowledged on or near the day. Please feel welcome to bring a special treat. Those students with summer birthdays will have a special summer birthday party towards the end of the year. COMMUNICABLE ILLNESSES: Please notify the teacher if your child develops chicken pox, mumps, measles, pink eye, impetigo, head lice, etc. and please keep your child home. Be sure to keep your child home if she/he has a bad cold, cough, fever, or has vomited during the night or morning. I do recess duty for my own class and cannot let a sick child stay in the room alone even if a parent requests that the child stay inside.
REGULAR ATTENDANCE: To get the most benefit from the kindergarten program, it is important that your child attend regularly. This not only gives them the academic start they need, but also starts good habits of attendance for the following years. If your child will be missing class for health or family reasons, please let the teacher know. Both regular attendance and prompt arrival are important.
