Dear Parents,                              

Welcome back everyone from the long weekend. We would like to send out a great big thank you to all of the parents who made our Valentine’s class parties so much fun as well as our conference times. We greatly enjoyed meeting with everyone at our parent-teacher conferences last week and are looking forward to a fantastic spring semester.

Summer Camp ~  It may still be the middle of winter, but we are already looking forward to all of the summer fun that we will be having this year! We are actively planning an exciting, action-packed program that we know you and your child are going to love. Be on the lookout for more information to come in mid to late March!

Pancake Date Breakfast ~ Save the date – Saturday, March 5th….  This is a special day that you and your kiddo won’t want to miss. We hope to see the two of you there on March 5th. Please see enclosed flyer for details!!

Field Trip ~ We are planning a fantastic field trip to the Denver Museum of Nature and Science on Wednesday, February 24th and Thursday, February 25th. We always appreciate parent volunteers/drivers as you greatly help us to make this day a success. Permission slips went home in last week’s folder, but please see someone at the front desk if you have any questions.

Calendar Alerts – We will be sending home more information regarding the dates as they get closer, but you can put them on your planning calendar now. This time of year seems to fly by so quickly!

Dear Parents,                              

We hope you enjoyed a wonderful weekend.  It is hard to believe it, but this is the last week of January… and that means February is only a week away!

Enrollment – We are currently enrolling students for the fall 2016-17 school year.  We sent home enrollment packets in your folder last week.   All of our current families are receiving priority enrollment before we open up enrollment to the community. So that you may take advantage of this time, it is important that you return your enrollment paperwork to us by February 12th before Open Enrollment begins on February 16th.

Referrals– We would like to give a great big THANK-YOU to our wonderful families that have been spreading the word about Word of Life Academy. If you know of any families that are interested in enrolling, please let us know. Spots will fill up fast and this is the perfect time to tour the school.

Conference Day ~ We want to remind you that Spring conference days are Thursday, February 11th and Friday, February 12th.  Sign-up sheets for each class will be at the front desk next week and online at sign-up genius, so you may sign up for a time to meet with your child’s teacher to discuss his/her progress, growth, and accomplishments!

Conference Camp Day ~ The school will be closed on Thursday, February 11th and Friday, February 12th due to parent-teacher conferences. If you are interested in a camp day on those days, we will be offering a fun filled Dr. Seuss celebration for any kiddos that would love to come play!  Sign up sheets will be coming home in today’s folder.


Calendar Alert ~ Valentine’s Day Parties are coming up as well! Due to conferences being scheduled on Thursday and Friday, your children will be celebrating Valentine’s Day with their classes on either Tuesday, February 9th or Wednesday, February 10th depending on which day your child attends school.  Please refer to your kiddo’s teacher letter for instructions on what to bring for their classroom celebration.  Teachers will have sign-up sheets located at the front desk as early as next week.

I know it is hard to believe considering it is the middle of January, but today is the very first day of registration for the 2015-2016 school year! We have had so many of our wonderful families that have helped us spread the word about Word of Life Academy, so pay close attention to our referral program. We are happy to provide you with extra packets so that you can share them with all of your friends, neighbors, and family!
