Daily Communication
Daily Communication
As teachers, we believe that the opportunity for daily conversations with parents at drop-off and pick-up are vital to helping children learn and develop. We will always let you know how your child's day was and what we are hoping to achieve as teachers, classes, and as a ministry. If you have questions, concerns, or just want to talk about your child's progress in more depth, please do not hesitate to contact our director to schedule a conference. We are always happy to communicate with families in any way we can.
