Preschoolers celebrate America

Welcome back to our returning families and thank you to all of our new families for letting us be a part of your child’s life.  We are excited about the new school year that begins on Monday, August 25th!  Watch your mail the week of August 18th for a postcard from your child’s teacher.

We look forward to seeing you Thursday evening, August 21st, at Parent Orientation and Friday morning, August 22nd, for Open House.  If you have any questions, please call the Preschool office at 770-971-6812 between the hours of 9:00 a.m. - 1:00 p.m.

Other important info for preschool parents:

HEALTH FORMS

At the beginning of each school year, all children must have a current Georgia Department of Human Resources Preschool/Childcare Immunization Certificate Form 3231.  It must be on file in our office by the first day of school. This certificate is available from your physician or the county health department.  Returning students with current forms on file DO NOT need to bring in another certificate.  You will be notified by the preschool office when your certificate is ready to expire.  New students may bring a copy to your child’s teacher at Orientation or Open House, or have your Pediatrician FAX it to the Preschool at 770-578-0217.  Please contact your Pediatrician early in order to allow time for their office to complete the correct form.

DISCOVERY DAYS

Discovery Days is our afternoon program offered Monday-Friday from 12:30-2:30.  This program is available to children 3 years old and older if potty trained.  Discovery Days will begin Tuesday, September 2nd.   In house Play & Stay is available Monday through Friday with no pre-registration.  Tables will be set up outside the Sanctuary on orientation night for information and registration on our special activities.
All Discovery Days contact and class information can be found at the bottom of the main Preschool page.

BOOKBAGS AND T-SHIRTS

The Preschool provides special bookbags for each child in our program.  We have ordered different colors for the various age levels to help the teachers and students identify their bags.  The teachers will give the children their bags at Open House.  New 2008-2009 Mt. Bethel Christian Preschool T-shirts will be on sale at our Parent Orientation.  A table will be set up by the Parent’s Club.  Please stop by!  Afterwards, items will be available for sale through the preschool office.

Summer Activities at Mt. Bethel

Mrs. Perdue visited with the children and read the book Miss Twiggley’s Tree by Dorothea Warren Fox, which she donated to the school. The children were excited to meet Mrs. Perdue and enjoyed the time she spent in their classroom.
