The Fifth Building is Framed

The 5th building is framed!

At this point all of the buildings are framed. Three of them have electric and heating and air conditioning meaning that they are nearly ready for the drywall to be installed. We are making great progress and are on track to be open on time.

This week we are pleased to announce that we are ADDING ONE YEAR OLDS TO THE HALF-DAY PROGRAM. If you are interested in enrolling your one year old please contact Mary Swanson at mary@thelittleschool.net.

We want to thank Judith Gadd, our wonderful webmaster and faithful site photographer for the new pictures that she added this week. They are great and for those of you who have not yet walked the site, it is your first look inside of the school.

See photo slide show below the posts.
Our whole team visited the buildings for their first tour on Monday and we must tell you that it was VERY exciting for us to see their responses.

GLIMPSE: This week we really have an announcement. We will be taking a walking tour of the new campus immediately following the open house on December 5th. We hope that you will all be able to join us. Please let us know by RSVP'ing to christaniven@thelittleschool.net

Pre-Tax Daycare Funds

See new construction pictures below!

Hello Everyone.

One of the families wrote to us this week with a problem that is likely facing many of you. They arranged for funds to be set aside pre-tax for childcare beginning on September 1st thinking that we would be open on time. As we have been delayed until January 4, 2010, that money is now in jeopardy. This very resourceful parent has done some research and learned that our late-start may be a qualifying event that would extend their access to those pre-tax funds. That mom needed to submit a letter explaining our delay. Click here to download a copy of the letter in case it could help you as well.

Please let me know if there is anything that we can do to help you.

On a separate note, some of our staff members are looking for some temporary work should any of you be interested in a short-term in-home situation. Please let us know if you would like to be contacted by some of our incoming folks.

Christa
