            Shepherd King Preschool

            Preschool quickly got back into the swing of our routine                      Preschool Director/Teacher:
            after a full week of break at the start of April.                                    Pam Hughes

            Students enjoyed weekly themes including an extensive study on Easter, flowers,   Preschool Assistant Director:

                                                                                              Teacher’s Assistants:
            The preschool had a wonderful time at the Easter Party where we were able to       Melissa Mattson
            celebrate the death and resurrection of Jesus.  We did several crafts, enjoyed a    Donna Bazzell
            meal, and read a great story about how a sweet bunny finds an empty egg, which
            is the best egg ever because it represents that Jesus is no longer dead, but ALIVE!   Preschool Board:
                                                                                                Tammy Brown,
            During the month of April, we held a fundraiser in partnership with Blake’s Or-      Janet Flessa,
            chards.  Our preschool was filled with the sights and smells of fresh cider and do-
            nuts, caramel apples, pies and a variety of delicious jams and salsas.  With that   Rev. Timothy A. Holzerland,
            fundraiser we were able to raise enough money to update our preschool dramatic         Pastor
            play areas with some fresh, new toys.  We will probably do this fundraiser again
            next year around Thanksgiving time, so be sure to pay attention so you can order
            some items for your Thanksgiving meal.
            During the month of May, preschool will be absorbed in investigating themes sur-
            rounding the zoo, construction (so applicable right now with the construction
            right outside our door), dinosaurs, summer fun, bugs and outdoor exploration. Be
            sure to check out, and “like” our facebook page to see some of the daily activities
            our students get to experience.
            We are thrilled to report that preschool is now at licensing capacity for all availa-
            ble student slots for the 2019/2020 school year. Due to this overwhelming re-
            sponse, we will be growing our teaching staff. We are currently looking for addi-
            tional lead and assistant preschool teachers. If you know of someone interested in
            more information, please contact our director Pam Hughes at shepherdkingpre-
            school@gmail.com or (248) 626-2121.

                             th
            On Tuesday, June 4 , the preschool will be hosting our graduation and end of the       Now
            year celebration immediately followed by a delicious ice cream social.  14 of our   Enrolling
            wonderful students will be leaving our pre-K program, some moving to our Junior
            Kindergarten program next fall and some moving on to elementary school.  It is       for the
            such a bittersweet time for our students and staff to say goodbye to one another
            for the summer.                                                                   2019-2020
            We love seeing our preschool grow and our kiddos and families continue to love   School Year
            what is happening here at Shepherd King.  Thank you for your support!
