Hopefully you and your child were able to enjoy the snow days. I wanted to share some important information and dates to keep in mind.

Field Trip – We will be going on a field trip Wednesday, March 11, 2020 to The University of Michigan/Dearborn campus Interpretive Center. We will be learning about our great outdoors and Maple Syrup Science. We will be leaving Cotter at 9:00 a.m. on a Dearborn School bus. We will be returning to Cotter at 11:30 a.m. Please be sure your child dresses for the weather as we will be outside for most of the field trip. Children need to wear warm jackets, boots, hats, and gloves. Parents are required to attend with their preschool child. The field trip is free. You will be required to fill out and sign a permission slip. I will have the permission slips ready to sign when you drop your child off in the classroom on Monday. Your child will have lunch at Cotter upon our return.

Spring Picture Day is Thursday, March 5. Please be sure to return the paper that was in your child’s folder from Lifetouch. Please choose the background you prefer for your child’s picture and write your child’s name on the form.

Spring Parent Teacher Conferences are coming up! Please be sure to sign up for a conference time at drop off on Monday. Conference days are March 12 and March 19.

March is Reading Month – Please let me know if you would like to come and read a book to the class. I have a sign up sheet for those who are interested.
