“Young children are perpetual tourists without much life experience, truly strangers in a strange land.  They are developing their minds and bodies at such a rate that they are literally new people with each sunrise.  Their back log of life experience is so slight that each day, each new place, each old place, brings surprises.  Their courage rises and falls like the tides.” - Jim Greenman

The 2010– 2011 school year has begun!!! We are off on a wonderful journey with the children, parents, and teachers all on board. The first weeks included: Bubble Days, Water Days, Making Lemonade and meeting new friends. We still have openings in our program.  We offer an outstanding curriculum, which will align with Douglas County Schools. Please share our program with neighbors and friends especially for those looking for a small, affordable, Christian learning environment.
 
Picture Days are scheduled for Wednesday Sept. 15th and Thursday Sept 16th.

Parent /Teacher Goal Setting Conferences are scheduled for September 23rd & 24th. (No Classes)  Please sign up for a time to visit with your child’s teacher.

The annual Fall Festival  is October 2nd   from 11 am – 3 pm. Jeannie Reddan, Parent Committee Chairperson has been working very hard planning and preparing the fundraisers.  If you own a home business and would like to be a vendor at the festival, and would like to rent space or donate a % of your sales to Faith Lutheran Scholarship, please contact Marian in the preschool office. Remember Pastor Mike’s mother’s motto “Many hands make light the work” Please sign up and volunteer for an hour. For more details on opportunities to help click here.

You are always welcome to come and join any of the classes and witness the difference that a Christian learning environment makes! Please just remember to sign in as a visitor/volunteer.

We Appreciate and Thank the members of Faith Lutheran Church and School for your continued support.

Blessings,
Ms. Marian
