Moms’ Time Notes - November 2, 2012


Unannouncements (things I meant to announce, but did not)

-In order for everyone to be able to participate in American Heritage Day, there will be no nursery care that day. Please keep your babies with you or arrange for grandma or a friend to watch your babies.    Schedules will be in your mailboxes on Friday.  Feel free to invite grandparents and friends . We will be done by 12:30. No uniforms needed on AHD.  There is no Grace Grille on AHD.

-Masters Kids moms: You do not need to sign out in the sign out book when you leave for a field trip.  Since you have a permanent contact mom, she will be responsible for your child.  Keep in touch with your contact mom, though, so she knows when you will return, and always keep your cell phone with you.

-Remember when your child misses a PSP, to email the teacher Monday morning to see what homework he has for the week.

Announcements—Christine R.

·         Remember AHD is now less than 2 weeks away.  Please make sure your children are preparing this week, as needed (especially government kids-have they started on their president presentations yet???) .   Also, don’t leave the costumes to the last minute (costumes are recommended, but not required). 

·         Change in Girls’Uniform rules:

o   Boys tuck their shirts in and wear a belt. (This has not changed.) Please help your young sons as they learn how to take care of their belts and tuck their shirts.

o   Girls’ dress code rule has CHANGED: shirts must be untucked.

o   Coordinators: Please be consistent in enforcing these rules. 

 
·         There is a new procedure for leaving early. If you leave with your child before his or her last class is over, please sign out in the moms’ book. Put your child’s name and “leaving early.”

Field Trip Announcements – Susan O.

Susan will be getting the train tickets. You must call the hotel and reserve a room. If you are interested in sharing a room, please contact Susan to see if she can arrange that.

The train goes to Stockton and a bus takes us the rest of the way to Sacramento – there is no extra charge for this.

This is a great field trip to focus on California History and Government!

Next Week’s Guest Speaker Announcement – Brenda S.

·         Next week’s guest speaker is Laura Tagliere who will be speaking about Managing God’s Gifts. Laura is a mother who is also a professor at Master’s College. She has spoken women’s events to encourage us to strive manage our home in a way that is pleasing to the Lord.

·         We would love for the new mom’s to be able to enjoy this so if there are some “veteran” moms could cover the nursery that would be great!

Free Family Photo Announcement – Diana O.

·         Diana is starting a photography business and is offering free family photographs on Saturday, November 17 9:00-12:30. Contact her to let her know you are interested. Visit her on Facebook to see the beautiful pictures she took of Irma M. and her family. (Okay, I am adding my own commentary – she didn’t say that last sentence!)
