Dear Thorncliffe Families, 

Our volunteer appreciation event was a great success, thank you again to all of the volunteers whose time and effort make our school an amazing place of learning.  

We are looking forward to welcoming our new to Kindergarten families this Thursday evening.  If you have a child that will be coming to kindergarten next year, you should have received an invitation with your time slot for attending the event.  If your child is coming to kindergarten next year and you did not receive the invitation, please call Ms. Freda and we can ensure your child is fully registered. 

With warm weather, we continue to encourage appropriate outdoor preparations with hats, sunglasses, and sunscreen!  Bringing a water bottle each day to be properly hydrated also keeps students feeling ready to learn on these warmer days. 

We hope you are all enjoying the beautiful weather! 

Sincerely, 

Calleigh Harder, Principal 

Nadine Duque, Assistant Principal
