Butterfly Classroom News This week we talked about back to school. We made paper plate school busses, book marks, chalk art and rulers to practice measuring. The children had fun talking about the big yellow school bus. In housekeeping we had a pretend school. We also welcomed Daisy, Olivia, Nehvin and Bryce to the butterfly room. Next week’s theme is All About Me. Have a great Weekend !!

Caterpillar Classroom News "A camping we will go" was the theme in the caterpillar room this week. We discovered a tent in our room, fish and nets in our sensory table and camp gear in our housekeeping corner! We sang about things that you would do and see while camping! Our favorite books this week we're "Good Night Moon" and "Where's my Teddy? " We finished the week by making and eating s'mores trail mix and printing with marshmallows! We also welcomed Kian, Bella, Josephine and Corinza to our room. Next week we pretend to be stars on Hollywood Boulevard!

Vacation Day Request Form Must be turned in one week prior to requested vacation days

Today’s Date: ______________________________

Child’s Name:_______________________________ Parent’s Name: _____________________________

Date(s) requesting for vacation: ___________________________________________ VACATION DAYS/ EXTENDED LEAVE POLICY: Parents will receive five (5) days of vacation after six months of continuous care at PDO. Vacation days will renew each year on January 1st. You are not required to pay for these days.

A Vacation Day Request Form must be filled out and turned into the office one week prior to requesting vacation days. These forms can be found in the office.

In the event of an extended leave of absence (a period greater than two weeks), families will forfeit their 5 days of vacation. If you choose to have your child take an unpaid leave of absence (i.e. summer vacation) you will then run the risk of losing your child’s spot in the classroom. Unpaid spots will not be held throughout the summer or any other extended period. We cannot guarantee that there will be availability in your child’s classroom after an unpaid leave of absence. If you do not want to risk losing your child’s spot, you are responsible for paying tuition during the leave of absence whether your child attends the center or not. Families that are on a wait list or wish to enroll will fill unpaid spots in classrooms.

Families returning and re-enrolling after an extended leave of absence are required to pay a discounted registration fee of $25 upon re-enrollment.
