Hello Families!

It was so fun to come back to school and see everyones smiling faces! We had a great week learning and adjusting back to school! We loved hearing about all the fun things you did during break! 

Next week we will work on some counting and fine motor skills, as well as learn about Jesus and how he liked to teach people and tell stories! 


Things to Know:

Absence Monday: I will not be in school on Monday, because I will be traveling home. Mrs. Simkins will be here! I told the students on Thursday and they are very excited for her! 

Conferences: Conferences will be the week of January 26. Next week I will send out a signup genius with dates and times that you can choose from. Conferences are not required, but are a great opportunity to connect! We will go over your student's progress report and talk about your options for next year! If you have any questions before conferences, let me know! 


Upcoming Dates:

  • January 19: No School

  • February 13 & 16: No School


From Rose Park:

Discovery Night at Rose Park: Do you or any of your friends or family have a prospective preschooler or kindergartener? Are you or someone you know looking into options for the 26-27 school year? We’ll be having our Discovery Night next week Thursday, January 15 from 6-7pm, and we’d love to have you come and explore Rose Park’s preschool and kindergarten programs! Since we prepare individually for each family visiting this Discovery Night, we would so appreciate your RSVP for Discovery Night. If you are unable to make it to Discovery Night, you are still welcome to visit Holland Christian Schools in person and see things in action for yourself. Feel free to schedule a campus tour through by filling out our Inquiry Form. Enrollment for the 26-27 will begin school year begins February 1, 2026.

 Hello Families!  We made it through our first week of school! We had SO much fun getting to know your students and teaching them some of our routines! In these next couple of weeks I am sure some of our friends will still feel some big emotions as they get used to the routine of coming to school. This is totally normal and we will keep giving lots of hugs and lots of encouragement!  Next week we will keep learning our school routines, and we will take our first field trip! On Wednesday we will get on a bus and head to the High School for our all School convocation. If possible, please drop your child off by 8:20 so we can get to the bus on time.  Things To Know:  Walk-a-thon T-shirt: There is a QR code outside of my room to sign up your student for a walk-a-thon t shirt. Please sign them up on Monday if you haven't already done so!  Upcoming Dates (Details to follow as the dates get closer): Post Family Farms: September 22 *Remember, each student needs an...
