Hello Everyone, 

I hope everyone enjoyed conferences on Thursday, May 9th. The teachers enjoyed going over the goals and accomplishments of the children, and sharing their artwork and pictures from the last few months. We look forward to implementing new goals and helping the children learn new skills! 

“Smiles and hugs, joy and love…that’s what great moms are made of”. -Paige DeRuyscher. Thank you to all the amazing moms and grandmas for letting us celebrate you at our Mother’s Day breakfast! The children had so much fun spending the morning with their moms and grandmas! Each day, they look for their pictures on our Mother’s Day display and tell us who they got to have breakfast with. We hope you enjoyed your special day! 

Everyone had a spectacular time celebrating our 4K graduates on May 23rd! The children all received a diploma for their favorite activity they enjoyed while here at Park’s Edge Preschool! They sang “The Color Song”, “This Little Light of Mine”, and “Jesus Loves the Little Children”. They also showed off their sign language skills while singing! The 4K children have grown so much and will do great on their Kindergarten journey! We are so proud of our graduates and cannot thank you enough for letting us be a part of their education. We know some will be here before and after school, as well as summer, but we will miss seeing their shining faces each day! Congratulations 4K Graduates! 

Summer is almost here and with that our summer program! Summer programming starts Monday June 10th, 2024 for 4’s and up. Summer packets are in mailboxes so please fill out all required forms and put the field trip calendar on your refrigera-tors. There are so many fun field trips such as hiking at Seven Bridges, Discovery World, and the museum! For our away field trips, we have times listed on the calendar. Please ensure your child is here half an hour before the time listed on the field trip calendar. If your child is late or cannot go on the field trip, they will be unable to attend Park’s Edge that day because we will not have room for them in another classroom. Please let us know if you have further questions about summer. 

Saturday June 1st, 2024 is our 25 year anniversary celebration from 10am to 1pm. We will have fun games, bounce houses, face painting, and food! We look forward to celebrating Park’s Edge Preschool and the wonderful years we have been able to provide quality education for children 6 weeks to 12 years old. We look forward to many more years of providing excellent care to young children and are blessed to have had an impact on so many children’s learning and development. We look forward to seeing you all Saturday June 1st, 2024! 

PEP has a few other special events coming up this June! Wednesday June 12th at 10am is PEP’s bike blessing that will be led by Pastor Josh of Emanuel Church. Please bring your child’s scooter or bike and helmet to be a part of the bike blessing. No hover boards or electronic/motorized bikes/scooters (non-motorized only). 

Thursday June 13th, 2024 will be our Father’s Day celebration from 4pm to 5pm! Each classroom will host a different activity for dads and grandpas to do with the children. We will have sweet treats available for everyone. We look forward to celebrating all of our amazing dads and grandpas!

Have a blessed June everyone! 

Sincerely, 

Haley Bigger
