THESIS Classes this Friday

Dear THESIS Families,

Last Friday was pretty exciting, don't you think?  Let's get ready to do it again!  Just a few reminders....

1.  Field Trip sign-ups!  Fall field trips are in place, and you will hear and see more about these tomorrow!  You are welcome to participate in as many as you wish.  Remember  that field trips and classes NEVER coincide.  For example, next Friday (Sept. 19) is the ziplining trip for older kids...we do not meet for classes.

2.  Speaking of ziplining, tomorrow is the sign-up and deposit deadline!  Make sure you get release forms from the counter if you are sending a kid, or are going yourself!

3. Remember:  athletic footwear; snacks (Pre-K and K) notebooks (MS and HS).

4.  Lastly,  with groups come contagious illnesses.  If your child is sick, please keep him/her home.  Phone/text/ask the assistant in the time slot beside yours to cover your job for you that day.  You know she will need to ask you eventually as well!  You should have received a most current copy of the schedule via email.

See you tomorrow!
Warmly,
Liz, for THESIS

Back to Classes THIS FRIDAY (Sept 5)

Hello THESIS Families,

It is that time of year...time to load up the kids in the car, van, or truck and head to THESIS this Friday!  But before you do, please read a few reminders, and be sure to print out a copy of the assistant schedule for yourself! (a downloadable link is coming, but you got this attachment in email, also)

REMINDERS
1.  Park and enter by the Main Entrance.  Announcements begin promptly at 12:45 pm in the Children's Church.  Please be in that room, along with all students!

2.  All kids up through eighth grade have an active class like gym--closed-toe athletic footwear is a must.  Feel free to send a water bottle--but only filled with water, please.

3.  Pre-K and Kindergarten students have a snack break, so remember to pack that young one a healthy snack (avoiding the peanut butter)!

4.  Parents with nursery and pre-K children...please be sure to leave your cell phone number with the teachers in those classes, just in case.

5.  All parents, please check in with the attendance folder on the cafe counter.  Also peek in your "mailbox" weekly.

6.  Field trip info will all be on the cafe counter; some sign-ups have deadlines and possibly deposits.

7.  Assistants!  Our group  exists on the co-operative spirit and God's grace!  But seriously, if you cannot make it of a Friday, you leave a class without its complement of adults.  Look at the names to the left and to the right  of your slot on the Assistant Schedule and call  one of them to cover your slot that day as well as theirs.  They will do the same for you. :)
 
See you this Friday! Questions? Contact us.
