Dear Families,
Happy New Year to all of our families and staff! We hope you and your family had wonderful holidays together, and are enjoying these extra snow days! We have a lot in store for your children and for the whole family in 2022.
I am so thankful and excited to let you know, that as a community, we raised over $400.00 for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society through our Pajama Days in December. Thank you to all who participated!! You all also raised over $1,500.00 for our new Playground Apparatus in donations and in our profit from the Miss Chocolate Fundraiser sale! When the snow clears, the children will see that the new apparatus has now been installed! We thank you all so very much for your generosity!!!!
Announcing … ONLINE REGISTRATION FOR FALL 2022 IS NOW OPEN! We are offering in-house priority registration to our current students so you can save a spot for your child before we open the registration up to the public. You may complete the registration form and pay the registration fee on our website to save your child’s spot for the next school year.
Here is our registration schedule:
- In-House Priority Registration for School Year 2022-23 for current families only: Now through – January 17, 2022. As of January 18, 2022, Fall 2022 registration will be open to the public. Online registration is open now, and we are also sending home a paper registration.
- In-House Priority Registration for Summer Camp 2022 for current families only: January 18, 2022 – January 31, 2022. As of February 1, 2022, Summer Camp registration will be open to the public. We are usually 100% sold out for camp (with a long waiting list), so please register during the in-house priority registration period to ensure you get a spot and the schedule you need! At this time, we do not know what restrictions will be in place for the Summer – so we do not know how many visitors we will have, or if we will have field trips, but like last Summer, we will have the Swimming Pools open and we will have a great Summer with lots of on-site special activities and themes (as we have had the last two summers during Covid). If your child has not attended our summer camp in the past, you can learn more about it on our website (again – the specifics of the program for 2022 will be determined by the Covid restrictions in place at the time of camp): https://www.pepperminttree.com/our-summer-program/
(NOTE: In non-Covid times, there is an optional field trip every week and also a visitor every week. Lots of choices and options. We will be building the 2022 Camp calendar once we have a better idea of the Covid rules we will be following. You don’t have to wait for the camp activity calendar to be completed to save your child’s spot in camp, since we allow children to sign up for any trip or activity, even if it is not their regularly scheduled day. Trip & Activity sign ups will not occur until late Spring.)
