Staff Development Day ~
Please make sure to mark your calendar for August 21st. COSKids will be closed for our staff development day. This is the day that we set aside each year for staff training and time in the classroom to organize and clean.

Matthews Alive!
Every school takes part in a fundraiser of some type. In lieu of selling discount cards or gift wrap, we have found that participating as volunteers at Matthews Alive is the most effective way to raise those extra dollars for classroom equipment and supplies.
In return for our volunteer time we receive a donation from Matthews Alive! for our help. Donations from Matthews Alive! help us to not only equip single working parents but also keep other costs at the center as low as possible.
Volunteers are needed and the slots are approximately 2 hours each. What you will be doing is taking tickets, running the game (which is VERY simple) and handing out prizes.
Sign up by using Sign-Up Genius (click here).
As always, thank you for your support.

Cell Phone Use
Please refrain from using your cell phone when you are picking up or dropping off you child. It is essential that you be able to communicate with the teachers and your child loves your full attention to share about their day.

Pick Up between 5:45 - 6:00
In effort to allow our closing teachers time to properly clean classrooms we are trying a new procedure.
Children in Dragonflies, Giraffes, Lions and Dolphins will be playing in the Dolphin room with Ms. Kattie.
Any children in the Elephants, Tigers, Owls and Dragonflies will be playing in the Dragonflies room with Ms. Janet.

Information Update
Once a year we are required to update emergency information on every child. If you began at COSKids before January of 2015, please stop by the office and check your emergency card. EVERY card must be updated, signed and dated.
Thank you for your help with this.

Change in Status ~
COSKids requires a two week notice if your status is changing (ie., you are leaving, you need to change the number of days attending). Please notify the office of any changes.
|
|
E-Payment ~
Please consider doing e-payment using your credit or debit card. It's convenient, safe and automatic. Simply fill out the attached paperwork and bring it by the office (copies are available in the office also). Your payments will be posted each Friday.
Not only are e-payments convenient but COSKids saves $ too because the cost is lower than processing a credit/debit card through the machine in the office or via PayPal.

|
Remind 101 ~
Take time to sign up for text messages and reminders from COSKids. Simply text @COSKids to 81010 and you will receive infrequent messages that are important, such as closing reminders or emergencies that effect the whole campus.
