Directors Corner Dear Parents,

In the month of November, we focus on family and thankfulness. Here at Childrens Lighthouse, we are so thankful for our families. We feel a special bond with each and everyone of you. Thank you for trusting us and allowing us to share in the growth and development of your child. It is such an honor to be part of your family in this way. We want to invite you to attend our annual Thanksgiving Feast here on Thursday, November 21st at 11:30 am. Room 10 will be open so you can have Lunch with your child. It’s a great time of celebration and fellowship. Congratulations to Our winners for the Pumpkin Decoration Contest, and Candy Corn Guessing Game. We really appreciate all of our parents who participated and we look forward to doing it again next year. Routine is so important for the day to day life of your child. We start our learning wall promptly around 8:30am. Please make every effort to have your child here by that time to receive all the advantages of our regular schedule. It is important for the children to have outside time each day, weather permitting. Colder weather is coming please label sweaters, jackets and any personal items your child brings to class. Along with that, please make sure your child has a change of clothes in their cubby. Our wish for you is a wonderful month of November, as we all celebrate family, both immediate and Children’s Lighthouse family. We are thankful for you and our awesome staff.

“A thankful heart is not only the greatest virtue, but the parent of all other virtues”.

Thankfully yours, -CLLC Management
