Dear BECC Families,
Welcome back!
We are excited to begin the new school year. The BECC staff has been busy getting ready for the year.
By now you should have received a letter from your child’s
classroom teacher. In that letter
you received information about our Open House on Thursday, September 6. Please make sure that you and your
child attend this Open House as this will provide your child the opportunity to
become familiar with his/her classroom and what happens at school. It also helps with first day of school
jitters.
The first day of school for the BECC will be Monday,
September 10. On your child’s first day, you will drop your
child off outside with their classroom teachers. There will be tears, and the initial transition
into preschool can be a tricky one. Some children will cry for 2 minutes other
children will cry for two weeks. This is harder on you then it is on anyone
else. The preschool teachers are masters at helping children
transition. As soon as the routine becomes familiar and predictable the
crying stops and the smiling and learning begins. A child’s first day of preschool is a big
deal. Because it is such a huge change to their life and schedule it can be
very scary for them. But by following the above tips, you will make your child’s
first day of school a smooth and happy transition.
We are here to help you
in any way we can. Please feel
free to contact us with any questions or concerns.
See you soon!
The BECC Staff
