First Day of School
We had a "SUPER" fist day of Preschool. Our Super preschoolers used their superpowers to change the color of playdough, made super bandannas, we worked on cutting, shapes, numbers, and started making posters about each individual kid. For snack we had x-men claws/catwomen finger nails. It's going to be a good year!

1. About Me
My name is Emily Pugmire; I have experience with several different grade levels. I received my degree from Utah State University in Early Childhood and Severe Special Education. I taught preschool with Cache school district for one year then I devoted my time to my own children. I have a preschooler myself and I love teaching!
My goal is to prepare your child academically, socially, emotionally, and physically for Kindergarten. And more importantly have many hands-on experiences and a lot of fun!
2. Registration, Tuition, and Schedule
· The 4-5 year old class is $100 a month (child must be 4 by Sept. 1st and must be potty trained)
Tuesday/Thursday 11AM-3PM
. There is a $10 registration fee to guarantee your spot.
· Tuition is due the first preschool day of the month. A $10 late fee will be added if paid after the 10th of the month unless prior arrangements have been made.
· A $25 fee will be charged for returned checks.
· If tuition is missed for a month the child will be dismissed until tuition is paid.
· It is important that children arrive no more than 5 minutes early and are picked up on time. If you are going to be late picking your child up, please call.
· Cash is preferred, if a check is written please write out to Emily Pugmire.
3. Behavior Management
I strongly believe in positive motivation. I believe encouraging positive behavior goes further than punishing a young child. When a problem arises, I talk with the child/children and we work to resolve the problem. A short time out or loss of privilege might happen, but I will inform you if discipline was needed.
4. Sick Days
· If your child is contagious or sick, please keep them home.
· My sick days: If I can’t teach because of a funeral, being sick or an emergency, I’ll notify you to cancel school. If I cancel more than two days a month, class will be rescheduled. I will not makeup Holidays or teacher work days.
5. Bathroom accidents
· I realize that accidents happen; please send an extra pair of pants, underwear, socks, and shirt in a Ziploc bag with their name on it. For liability reasons, if your child needs help changing I will call you to help them.
6. Birthdays
· Each child’s birthday will be celebrated on or around that day. Summer birthdays will be celebrated throughout the year. Please no gum or other treats that take a long time to eat!
7. Snack
· Your child will get a chance to bring and pass out snack about once every month. The day they bring snack they will also be the snack helper. A list of snack ideas is attached.
8. Show-N-Tell
· We will have show-n-tell every Tuesday. There will be a theme each week for show-n-tell like letters, colors, shapes, or a favorite something. The theme will be listed in the monthly calendar that I will send home.
9. Other Important Information
· Please do not park in the driveway to pick up or drop of your child. Enter the circle going the direction of traffic, I will bring the children out a couple minutes before class gets out and watch for you to get out of the car. I will not allow the children to go into the street by themselves.
· I will only allow children to go home with people listed on their information paper. If you need someone else to pick up your child, send a note with your child or give me a call. This is for your child’s safety.
· We collect beautiful junk including; clean milk carton lids, beads, yarn, buttons, etc. Anything we can sort, count, or use for colleges and art projects.
· Please have children leave toys at home (aside from show-n-tell). They get mixed up with the preschool toys and can be a distraction.
· Label all your children’s coats, sweaters, hats, gloves, etc.
· Parent/Child concerns: Please let me know if there are any personal problems going on at home (death, divorce, new sibling) so I can better meet the needs of your child.
I’m looking forward to a great year! Please don’t hesitate to talk to me about anything, whether it seems small or big. Sometimes a little problem becomes big because of a misunderstanding.
