WHAT’S NEW?!

SSA REMINDER WINTER ADVISORY

With temperatures dropping students are wearing more and

more layers. Hats, gloves and scarves are very easy to

confuse and misplace. We ask parents to please label every

article of clothing that comes in, in order to minimize

confusion.

More and more layers also calls for longer times to get our

students ready so, we are also asking parents to message

us 5 minutes prior to pick up so that we can have your child

bundled to reduce wait time and lobby congestion!

Thank you in advance,

SSA Management

CANDY GRAMS

February 6th – 10th we will be handing out

slips to both parents and teachers to fill out

for a Valentine’s Day candy gram!

Parent can gift their child’s teacher a lollipop

and teachers can gift them to parents as

well!

Lollipops will be on sale for 50 cents and

proceeds will go towards the American Heart

Association.

We thank you in advance!

Mom and Dad Storytelling

- Marshmallows

- Chocolate that can be melted

- Sprinkles

- Lollipop Sticks

Fix some marshmallow on one end of a lollipop stick

and place it into melted chocolate. Dip it in some

sprinkles and let it dry. The kids will enjoy fixing the

marshmallow and adding the sprinkles. Let the excess

chocolate drip off before adding the sprinkles and

ensure that the coating is not too thick!
