Kittredge Konnection – January 30, 2018

February Habit of Mind: Managing Impulsivity

“Great things are not done by impulse, but by a series of small things brought together.” ~Vincent Van Gogh

People who are able to manage impulsivity will take some time to consider alternatives, gather information and come to a considered conclusion. They are able to set goals, prioritize and keep their plans on track.

“Look twice before you leap.” ~Charlotte Bronte

Valentines Day at Kittredge – February 14

Please remember that if your child is distributing Valentines’ cards in school, he or she should have one for every member of the class. Candy treats will not be allowed to be eaten in classes and should be used minimally, if at all.

Presidents’ Week Break is Coming Soon: February 19 to 23

As written on our calendar, Kittredge will be closed on Monday, February 19th for Presidents’ Day. Extended Day will be available from Tuesday to Friday if we have 5 or more enrolled.

A Survey Monkey registration form will be emailed home next week. Please let us know if your child will use our Extended Day Program during Presidents’ Week so we can plan properly. Thanks for your help with this.

Calling all Talent… Talent Show Auditions Will Begin After Presidents’ Week

All students who want to audition for a solo or small group performance at our talent show need to know their act and be ready to perform it in class. Please help your child prepare and please remember that acts can be no longer than 3 minutes. Audition slips must be completed and turned before your child can audition. David Silverman has already passed out forms and more are available in the office.

Visitors are in the School

Applicants for next year in grades 1 through 8 are coming in to spend a day in a classroom. Kittredge is designed to have openings for new transfer students in 6th grade and other grades if space is available. Word of mouth has always been our best advertising, so if you know of any families looking for a strong academic yet nurturing environment, please have them call us.
