February Highlights
February is always a busy month full of special occasions. One event
that may be new to you is the celebration for the 100 th day of school.
We celebrate the day with activities relating to the number 100. It is
a fun way to incorporate counting by ones, fives, and tens to see what
100 of something looks like, to make comparisons, and to write about
100. We have been working up to this day since the first day of
school. This year the 100th day of school is Friday, February 20th (as
long as we don’t have any more snow days)! More information will be
coming home soon from your child’s teacher.
Per Loudoun County Guidelines: No candy may accompany Valentine’s
Day cards. Any candy will be returned home. Thanks for your
cooperation and understanding! Kindergarten students will also be
exchanging valentines for Valentine’s Day. A letter will be sent home
to explain the details. The children always look forward to delivering
and receiving their valentines! As a reminder, if your child chooses to
send in cards, please include one for each Kindergarten friend.
