International Day Potluck!

Greetings to all!

Our International Potluck celebration will be this Friday, April 29, 2016.   The children will perform at 10:30 A.M. in their own classrooms.  Performances will include songs, poems or chants, short skits, or folk dances from all over the world.  Children may come to school dressed in their traditional costume of their choice.  Due to limited classroom space, we ask that only two adults per child will attend.  Please come on time as the performances will start promptly at 10:30 A. M. followed by potluck.

We’ll be accepting food donations for our International Potluck that are either store or restaurant bought and sign-up sheet is available in your child’s classroom.  We have a diverse student population, many of which have specific allergies, so please list the ingredients for each menu and any kind of nuts is not allowed.   Ingredient card is available in the classroom and in the front desk.

Please sign out your child from the teacher and at the front desk if you would like to take your child home after the event.

We appreciate your cooperation and we hope to see you there!

Parent-Teacher Conferences

Parent-Teacher Conferences

Happy Tuesday!

 

It was delightful to see parents observing their children on Parent Observation Days.  This morning our Parent Observation Days Part II ended successfully.  The patience and understanding demonstrated by the parents is immeasurable.  For our younger children, parents did not mind standing outside as long as they could see through the window how their children are interacting with their teachers and friends.  Our older children are proud and excited to see their parents observing and taking notes of their classroom environment.   We are grateful to receive some parent feedback that we can apply for the school and the children.  Your comments are our strength and inspiration.  We appreciate the feedback and for investing the time to take an active part in your child’s education.

 

The next step after Parent Observation is the Parent-Teacher Conferences.   On your scheduled conference, please be on time as there would only be a 15-minute time allotted for each family.  Parent-Teacher Conferences will be held in the back office, during which time the parent observation notes and the progress reports will be discussed.  Progress reports will only be given during scheduled Parent-Teacher Conferences.  Please check the sign-up sheet in your child’s classroom for the time and date that you signed up for.

 

The April schedule is as follows:

 

Thursday, April 7 and Friday, April 8:  Classroom 2

Monday, April 11 and Tuesday, April 12:  Classroom 3

Wednesday, April 13 and Thursday, April 14:  Classroom 4

Friday, April 15 and Monday, April 18:  Classroom 5

 

Parent-Teacher Conferences for classrooms 6 through 10 are scheduled in May.  Sign-up sheets are available in your child’s classroom.

 

Please speak with me or the front desk for your questions and concerns.  Thank you for being a LAPMS family!

Science Fair 2016

Science Fair 2016

Congratulations to our LAPMS young scientists and their mentors for this year’s 2nd Annual Science Fair!

Thank you to our LAPMS parents and children for a successful Science Fair yesterday.  Doing a science fair project is a wonderful learning opportunity that develops learning skills a child has been taught in our LAPMS curriculum.  Our science curriculum integrates all subject areas that involve reading and writing, grammar, math, art and drawing, logical thinking, and the scientific method.  We strongly support the preschool science standards as they are complemented by science fair projects including pre- and post-lab activities.

The science participants were excited explaining what they have discovered from their science experiments and describing their work in front of their classmates.

We applaud all science parent mentors and especially our young scientists at LAPMS for an achievement we all are very proud of!

Niles Egg Hunt 2016

Niles Egg Hunt 2016

We would like to thank all our parents that volunteered and donated in making our annual Easter egg hunt a success for all our Friends. As the classes begun this morning, all our children anticipated their turn to start their hunt. We heard “this is amazing” and our friends faces had big bright smiles as they scattered all around in the playground in hunt of Easter goodies. At the end, our friends were very much happy and eggs were shared all amongst each other. We appreciate all your generosity in making this event a memorable one for all our Niles Friends.
