ANNOUNCEMENTS

Welcome to the Mater Dei Preschool Program! The purpose of our program is to provide a positive early educational experience for your child. The program offers each child activities which address his/her total needs: physical, emotional, intellectual, and spiritual. Our commitment is to bring Jesus to the hearts of the children entrusted in our care. We will strive to provide a loving and safe environment that encourages socialization, creativity, experimentation, and 21st century learning. A "hands on" approach to learning is stressed.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

• Back to School Night will be held on Tuesday, 9/3 at 6:30pm. Please note that this meeting is for parents only. Thank you!
• Please be sure to check the PreK supply list by clicking here. 
• Please be sure to label any and all or your child's supplies (backpacks, lunch boxes, coats, water bottles, etc.), this will help to ensure your child is sent home with their correct items. 
• We are asking you to please send your child to school with a regular size backpack. Many of the items that will be sent home with your child each week can not fit into a small bookbag.
• For shelter in place bags, please consider small bottles of water, instead of regular size since it will be difficult to fit them into a gallon bag. Also, if your child's "activity book" will not fit in the bag, you are free to label the book and keep it separate.
• You will need to purchase a "napper" from the school. The napper is a mat with a pillow and blanket attached. You can purchase your child's napper at back to school night, or on the first day of school.
