November newsletter

1. Welcome to November! As we have now reached the last months of the year, please, please,
please make sure you have LifeCubby (LC) and check it often as we are moving to use LC as our
main source of communication. Beginning in January we will be uploading newsletters and
calendars and NOT sending them via email. We have student pictures this month, our
Thanksgiving Feast, and we will start to work on our holiday songs for our program next month. I
hope your November is great! Sincerely, Jeni Hoover, Director

2. From the KELC Teachers:
Saying “no” strengthens
character. It is a shield
against manipulation, and it
can educate other people
about you.

Pictures from the last Month:
We are so thankful for all that we have here at Kendal! This month we
have our Thanksgiving Feast where the children help us to make the food items on
the menu. November and December are very busy, yet it is one of our most
favorite times with the children. Our discussion in the classroom will be around
thanksgiving and what it means to be “thankful”.
Another thing we are thankful for is Valerie Albenze will also be joining
our teaching team this month! Valerie will be opening and will serve as a Lead
Teacher along with Mary Balduff. We are excited to have her on our team and we
know you will be as well.
During this month we will be finishing our fall assessments and setting
times and dates to meet with you in December to review the progress we have
seen with your child since September. We will also be sending home a pre-
conference sheet for you to complete after Thanksgiving.
We look forward to having you join us for our Thanksgiving Feast this
month, and we know the kids are excited to have you with us as well. �
