Dear Park’s Edge Preschool Families, 

Love is in the air at Park’s Edge Preschool. The children have been very busy making Valentine’s Day cards for Emanuel Church Members, the Hales Corners Care Center and for our Veterans at the Zablocki VA.

Friendly Reminder: Our 2025 tuition rates go into effect on Monday, February 3. We will have a table setup for vacation vouchers the week of February 3. If you have not turned in your paperwork yet, please drop it off at the front desk prior to receiving your vouchers.

On Thursday, January 9, PEP staff were trained in CPR, and the use of our AED machine by Brian Schulenburg from Pulses First Aid Training. The Wisconsin Licensing Department requires all staff to be CPR certified. The training also covered first aid, blood borne pathogens and the Heimlich maneuver.

Emanuel Church is hosting another fun Lego Master Night on Friday, February 7th at 6pm. This month’s theme is ‘Build your favorite Bible story.’ All are welcome! Last time the church hosted this event, PEP had several families who attended and had a great time.

Friday, February 14th we will have our annual Valentine’s Day Parade in Emanuel Church at 10am. Please dress your child in pink, red, purple, white and/or hearts. Parents and grandparents are welcome too. Please read the attachment for more information about our Valentine’s Day celebration.

If there is a change to your child’s schedule (ex: sick, leaving early, bus change) please message us in ProCare. This updates both the office staff and teachers.

Please mark your calendars, PEP has a Professional Half Day on Friday, March 7th. We will close at 12pm, lunch will be provided. All pm transportation will not be provided that day.

I am excited to announce that we will be getting new classroom dividers for the lower-level classrooms. We will be replacing the white shelving with new custom-built shelves. I will have more details as the installation date gets closer.

Although the weather is still cold outside, we are excited to start planning for our Summer Program. Ms. Nicole, Ms. Melinda and Mr. Cody are gearing up for another fun-filled summer at PEP. We will have the summer packets ready to hand out the night of our Spring Fling, Thursday, March 20.

I hope everyone has a wonderful Valentine’s Day!

Sincerely,
Kristin Burr
Director
