NEW! Kindergarten Summer Bridge Program
Litchfield Park Preschool is beginning a Kindergarten Summer Bridge Program for 4
and 5 year old children entering Kindergarten in August 2019. The program goal is on
kindergarten readiness as outlined in the Arizona Department of Education’s Arizona
School Readiness Framework. The progressive theme-model and literacy-based
curriculum will include letter knowledge, print and phonological awareness and
emergent writing skills. Skill development will include physical, academic and
socialization, language, fine and gross motor, math, reading readiness, self-care, and
social-emotional. The program will assess and identify skill strengths and weaknesses
and develop an individual skills set program for each student. Questions concerning
the program? Please contact Seye White, Preschool Teacher or Chris Weaver,
Preschool Director, 623-935-9040.
Wildlife World Zoo Visits!
The Litchfield Park Preschool is going to the Wildlife World Zoo! All parents will check
their child in at 8:45am at the zoo east entrance at the designated sign in and out
table. Please pack a paper bag sack lunch and drink. We are providing ice and cooled
bottled water. All preschoolers are asked to wear a red shirt. Please apply sunscreen
before check in! Admission is free for students. Don’t forget your sun hat!

Reminders
May 2019 tuition is due by Monday, April 15, 2019.
Please make sure to remit your child’s tuition payment by Monday, April 15 to
avoid the $15 late fee.
Please remember to check your child’s April 2019 snack calendar.
The snack calendar can be viewed on the parent board located outside the
preschool door or on Litchfield Park Preschool’s Facebook page.
Ready, Set, Breakfast!
Breakfast provides our children with the energy and nutrients that lead to
increased concentration in the classroom. It also provides energy for
activities during the morning and helps to prevent mid-morning slumps.
Please participate in lost jacket and backpack prevention.
Please remember to write your child’s name on jackets and backpacks.
Please take you child to the restroom before class.
For the safety of the children, we are unable to open the potty door until all the
children have arrived and we have taken attendance.
Save the date! Graduation will be held on Wednesday, May 22, 2019.
Graduation for ABC Explorers AM and PM will be held at Rose Park, 580 W.
Village Parkway, Litchfield Park. More information will be published in the May
2019 newsletter.
