Happy February Laurel Community!
I would like to start off by saying Welcome to all of our new families! We are so happy to have you join our school community.
It's hard believe that we are already half way through the school year? It’s amazing how time flies when you’re having fun!
Each month I offer a “Coffee Talk” with families before the Community Morning Meetings and we discuss different topics. The holiday season was busy and filled with many opportunities but I would like to share some more ways families can volunteer their time at Laurel both on and off campus!
• Door Greeting – In the morning we are always looking for families between the hours of 7:45 – 9:15 to greet families and visitors in the morning
• Parent Testimonials – We are looking for families that would like to give a testimonial about their Laurel experience and add it to our web page for potential families
• Window Repair – Our camp shed has a broken window that needs repairing!
• Library Organization – One of our teachers, Ann Ferro would like help to reorganize our book themed library
• Fundraising Opportunities - Using A+ Rewards Program at Stop n Shop, Box Collections, Amazon Smile
• Box Tops Collection
• Appreciation Week/Teacher Appreciation Day – May 4th
• Brewster in Bloom Weekend – Parade, Vendor Weekend
Our next coffee talk will be an information session about our summer day camp and in future months we will talk about Appreciation Week and Brewster in Bloom!
Thank you as always for your wonderful support of Laurel!
Best,
Amy
