Dear Parents/Guardians, 

  School will begin before we know it! I am looking forward to meeting your child on orientation day. Below you will find my email address. Please email me so that I will have your email address for future communications.  Please include any additional contact emails. You can also access my classroom page through the school website at www.mpregional.org located under the students tab. Look for Mrs. Scarpignato, PreK 3. 

 The PreK 3 orientation will take place over the course of two days. This will be a time for your child to become acquainted with the classroom, the teachers, and meet a few new friends prior to the first day of school. Your child does not need to wear his/her uniform on this day. However, please bring all the supplies listed below. 

1. Wednesday, September 4th - 8:30 to 9:30 am - girls only (come directly to the classroom)

2. Thursday, September 5th - 8:30 to 9:30 am - boys only (come directly to the classroom)

3. Friday, September 6th - a half day of school for all PreK 3 students, dismissal is     at 12:00 pm. Please pack a small morning snack in their school bag.

Please note our potty (bathroom) trained policy: Children enrolled in preschool must be potty trained by the first day of school. We understand that accidents may still happen. However, children should be able to (1) communicate to teachers that they need to use the restroom; (2) independently use the restroom without assistance; (3) wear cloth underwear. (NO pull-ups are permitted). If a child has three or more accidents in a month’s time, we will reevaluate his or her placement at Mother of Providence.

On Friday, your child should be in the gym between 8:00 and 8:20 am. Students should wear their spring uniforms beginning on Friday, September 6th. I look forward to an exciting year full of fun, learning and making new friends.

Mrs. Amanda Scarpignato
