Little Flower Catholic Academy (PK 3) Information
Meet & Greet: Wednesday, August 17
Wednesday, August 17, between 8:00 am -11:00 am, will be a visitation day only for Little Flower Catholic Academy students and their parents. You are invited and encouraged to come during your assigned hour to familiarize yourself and your child with his/her new classroom, his/her cubby, drop off school supplies, and meet the teachers. This will help ease the anxiety that some children and parents may feel on the first few days of school. Please bring your child’s school supplies during your visitation on Wednesday, August 17th. If you ordered an Edukit for your child, it will be delivered to the classroom for you.
We have staggered the visits between 8:00 am - 11:00 am so that the children, parents, and teachers can meet in smaller groups. We will send your visitation time to you on your student’s WELCOME postcard. You and your child can explore the classroom and use this visitation time to help familiarize him/her with our class. There will be sign-up sheets, a questionnaire for you to fill out, and lots of game centers for the children to enjoy while you are here.
We look forward to meeting all of you! God bless you all!
