July 2021
Dear Parent(s),
The weather has cooperated with very little rain thus far and as a result, water play has been a big success. If you have not done so yet please provide sunscreen or a shirt as a cover for protection against the sun. With sunscreen, we will need a doctor’s prescription acknowledging to apply sunscreen when needed outdoors.
Pennsylvania’s mask order ended on Monday, June 28. JCDS will no longer require masks outdoors or indoors. Wearing a mask will be an option for parents and their children. We will still screen children for a temperature in the morning. Hopefully, we will be able to have parents once again enter the school as we return to pre-COVID 19 protocols. Stay tune for more information.
Our Mother Goose theme for July is “EcoVenture”, which will have topics about the environment and nature. The children will be learning about trees, the air, water, and soil and how nature has each interdependent on one another.
We will be closed on Monday, July 5th in observance of Independence Day. Our next holiday will be for Labor Day on Monday, September 6th.
Speaking of Independence Day, JCDS will be celebrating the holiday with a school parade on Friday July 2nd. We would like all the children to dress in the colors of red, white, and blue to show your spirit for this holiday.
Our monthly Monday staff meeting will be on July 19th. We will be closing at 5:30pm.
If you have not let us know your vacation plans for the summer, please provide the dates that you will be on vacation so we can plan accordingly.
