I took a lick of a peppermint stick,

And oh it tasted yummy!

It used to be on the Christmas tree,

But now it’s in my tummy

Sing With Us

We have all come back to school and our teacher’s really cool!

We are making some new friends, we don’t want the day to end!

There’s lots of new fun things to do, lots to learn for me and you!

Hello to the 2023-2024 School Year!

Can you believe it is the beginning of a new school year already? The staff is pumped to get the ball rolling and we hope the children are just as excited. Most of our students will be moving up to a new classroom so “Meet the Teacher” packets will be going home.

I know most of our parents know all of the staff, but if you want to take time to meet your child’s teacher and get more details about how their classroom operates just let admin know and we can schedule a time.

We will be going to Fifer’s Orchards for some apple picking this month. Permission slips will be going home soon! With so many other choices we just want to thank you for choosing Rainbow Xpress! I hope you are ready because this year is going to rock!

Classroom Information

ASQ information will be going home within the next few weeks. This year ASQs are mandatory, each family will need to fill one out for their student. We work hard to make sure each of our students starts their education journey off right and the ASQ is a big part of letting us know where they are and what they need to succeed!

September is starting off with the “All About Me” theme in each classroom. This helps teachers get to know their new students and for the students to get to know one another.

Reminders

Each student needs at least one weather appropriate outfit in their cubby.

Check your student’s mailbox for important info.

Please walk your child to class at drop off and pick them up from their class. This allows the opportunity to talk with the teacher, check cubbies, and read information on the parent boards.
