End of Daylight Savings – Sunday, Nov. 5th
It is time for us to reset our clocks as we “Fall Back” by one hour. This small change will have an impact on our kiddos, from emotional drop-offs to concerns about how dark it gets while they’re still at school. The classrooms will discuss the time change, and we are prepared to support the children as they adjust.
As it gets darker/colder earlier, we will be transitioning from afternoons spent in the yard and on the patios to inside the classrooms.
End of the Day Classrooms:
Older Pod – Rm 2 for Rm 1 & 2 Friends (Rm 3 will remain in their own room.)
Younger Pod – Rm 4 for Rm 4 & 5 Friends
