Pumpkin Auction
We have the most creative teachers and parents! We love to show off their skills during our annual pumpkin auction fundraiser! Pumpkins will be on display on our website, Facebook page, and in the preschool lobby. The auction and voting on your favorite will take place from October 18th through October 24th.
Early Release
Since we loosely follow the GCPS school calendar, Wednesday, October 23rd and Thursday, October 24th are Early Release days. School begins at the regular time (9:30) but will release at 12:00 (NOON) on both days. No lunch is needed on Wednesday or Thursday.
Halloween Parties
Yes! We wear our costumes on Halloween! Please refrain from wearing anything that would be scary. For children in diapers or who are toilet training, make sure the costume is easily accessible or removable. Bring extra clothes if needed. Please check with your teachers regarding your child’s party day.
