December Update

Dear Lower School Families,
Winter break is around the corner, and we can smell snow in the air!  We are looking forward to some lovely events as we close out December.  This Friday we will be hosting our annual “Gift Wrap Party.” We’ve collected lots of wonderful toys, and we invite you to join us at 3:15 in the Extended Day space to help create wrapping paper and wrap the gifts for Youth Services, Inc.  All are welcome; please let us know if you or your child are planning to attend.

Our winter program, “The Peaceable Kingdom: Lessons for a Loving Heart,” will be at 10:30 in the Muller Auditorium on Wednesday, December 21.  Doors to the auditorium will open for seating at 10:00. Please be respectful of all and do not save seats.  It is unfair for those who are present and looking for a spot to be kept from unoccupied seats.  We also ask that you be mindful when taking photographs, and do not obstruct others’ view of the stage. The stairs must be kept open for student entrances and exits and also for safety reasons. Thank you for your partnership. We look forward to sharing this wonderful performance with you, and we hope you will join us in singing the closing song. 

You are invited to enjoy coffee and snacks prior to the Winter Program beginning at 9:00 in the Muller Lobby courtesy of our wonderful Home and School Association! 
Please note Lower School has a noon dismissal on Wednesday, December 21. Buses will not run, and there will not be Extended Day care. Please make sure you’ve made arrangements for your child to be picked up by noon.

December progress reports will be sent out prior to winter break.  We will return to school on January 3, 2017.  Information and reminders can found by visiting our blog, http://afslowerschool.blogspot.com/. As always, please feel free to reach out to us with questions.

Over winter break, we hope you find time with family and friends to share light, love and laughter.
Sincerely,

Andrea
