Director's Comments

Separation is natural and affects different children in different ways. On your childā??s first two days of school, plan to have your child leave earlier than their normal schedule. Several hours can be a very long time to a child in a new situation. Please make arrangements so that you can spend time in the classroom with them. When it is time to leave, please give your child a clear goodbye. The teachers will take over and engage your child and start developing a relationship and comfort.
