Connections Preschool
Backpack
Backpacks should be large enough for extra change of clothes, snow pants, etc. and labeled with your child’s name. Please let your child’s teacher know if you need help supplying a backpack.
Change of Clothes
Accidents do occasionally happen, so we ask that you put a pair of pants, underwear, shirt and socks in a plastic bag to be kept in your child’s backpack.
Shoes
For safety reasons, we encourage children to wear tennis shoes to school. We discourage boots, crocs, flip-flops, sandals, slippers, cowboy boots or slippery-soled shoes. These type of shoes hinder a child’s movement in many of our classroom and gym activities.
Cold Weather Clothing
Cold weather clothing is a necessity during winter months. Please supply a winter coat, hat, mittens, snow pants and warm boots. Label all clothing with your child’s name. Please contact your child’s teacher if you need help accessing these items.
Donations
Parent donations are always appreciated. Your child’s teacher will let you know when items are needed. Examples of donations needed include boxes of tissues, paper towels, napkins, etc.
