Garfield Public Preschool Annex 1


Welcome to Garfield Public
    Preschool Annex 1 (GPPA1)

October 2024

Dear Parent(s)/Guardian(s),

As we turn the page to October, we can see how our students have adjusted to daily life at the preschool.  Early tears have turned into smiles and laughter as the learn and grow each day.  They continue to learn and explore new topics and studies through interactions with their teachers and classmates.  As the weather begins to cool down please be reminded that all classes go outside daily.  Please have your child dressed appropriately.  We have many fun events planned in October.  Please check your child's backpack daily for notices being sent home.  We will also post updates on this webpage, via email, and Remind messaging.  I am also working with our former principal, Ms. Bianchi, on transferring the schools Instagram account so that we can begin to post there as well.  I will share information to join once it is back up and running. Please remember that my door is always open if you have any questions or concerns.  You may reach me at the number below or via email.


Sincerely,
David Nelke
Principal, GPPA1
