Doors will open at 6 p.m. Upon arrival, please walk your child(ren) to their classroom and then proceed to the Church to find a seat. All 3K, 4K, and 5K students will return to their families after their performance and will remain with you until the end of the concert. After your child performs, please have one parent retrieve them from the Pre-K staff. At the conclusion of the concert, please retrieve your child(ren) in 1st-8th Grade from their teacher.

REMINDERS
Spring Musical Meeting: There will be a Spring Musical Parent Information Meeting tonight, December 5 at 6:30 p.m. in the STEM Room. We recommend parents of any 3rd-8th Grade students who might be interested in participating in Alice in Wonderland Jr., this year's show, to attend this meeting to learn all about what this commitment entails.
Advent Silent Entrance/Exit: As we prepare for the birth of Jesus throughout Advent, we will bookend the week with silent entrance and silent dismissal. As students enter school on Monday mornings, the dimmed lights will remind them to remain silent as they prepare themselves for the day. On Fridays, students will leave their classrooms in silence. We ask scholars to maintain this silence until they are in the car or on the bus. The first silent exit will be tomorrow, December 6!
Mom's Favorite Things Event: Please join us for a mom's night of socializing and Christmas cheer on Tuesday, December 10 from 6-8 p.m. in the STEM Room. We will have a favorite things gift exchange (up to $15). Please bring your gift wrapped and ready to exchange. Sign up online to bring an appetizer, dessert, or drink to share. We look forward to seeing you there!
