FRIDAYS at Morningstar

Good Morning Parents~

As many of you know, Morningstar opened its doors on Friday's starting in September due to the requests of many community members. Over the last 6 months, we have continued to stay open on Friday's to offer care for those who need. Unfortunately, over the last 6 months, we have seen only a small portion of families take advantage of this additional day at Morningstar. 

Hoping we would see an increase in the number of enrollee's for Morningstar on Friday's, we remained open & offered a discount on Friday's to help encourage families to take advantage of this day. 

Due to the cost to remain open on this additional day and the lack of students actually attending on Friday's, unfortunately Morningstar will no longer be available to offer care for those families on Friday's. 

****Friday, March 2nd will be the last Friday Morningstar will be open for Friday care.****            

We will revisit the interest level as we approach the summer months.

I know that for some of you, Friday's have been a great option and we appreciate you all committing to enrolling on this additional day. I am sorry that we were not able to make this additional day work. If you have questions or concerns about this schedule change, please contact me. I know this leaves a few of you without care on Friday's, but I do have some resources available to offer so please ask. 

Thank you for your cooperation with this matter. HAve a wonderful day!

Valentine's Day Party

Valentines Day is just around the corner and we are ready to show our love for one another :)  Throughout this week, students will be preparing for our Valentines day celebration. 

On Tuesday February 14th at 3pm, Morningstar Students will enjoy a Valentines Day party! 

Students will be making sugar cookies earlier in the day & will exchange valentines and have sweet treats during the party!! Students will make valentines day bags this week so they can collect valentines from their friends.

If students would like to hand out valentines, please make sure you have enough for each friend. (30 Preschoolers, 13 Infant & Toddlers) Seeing as we will be handing out sweet treats they have made for the party, please try to avoid large amounts of sugary treats   We all know what the crash looks like!!  All friends, regardless of the day you attend MLC, are welcome to our party! Please let us know if you are interested in coming & you do not attend on Tuesday afternoons. 

If you have questions regarding our Valentines Day Party, please contact Miss Whitney :)  Thanks Friends!
