Early Care/After Care Drop In
We offer the option to have children "drop in" to Early Care (8:30-9:30) or After Care (12:00-2:00 or 12:00-4:00) on an as-needed basis. Based on enrollment and staffing, however, space is limited. It is important that parents sign-up through the Portal if you are in need of Early or After Care (registration is on a first come, first served basis.)  Please follow these instructions when the need arises. Thank you!
We Need You
Subs: Are you interested in working a few hours a week in one of our classrooms? We are looking to add to our sub list. We may be biased but it's a lot of fun! If you want to learn more contact Katie Kelly.

Food for Friends Program: Are you interested in supporting the Parent Committee from home? We are looking for someone to run our Food for Friends program by creating on-line meal trains for families in need and emailing the information to classrooms. If you want to learn more contact Katie Kelly
HALLOWEEN
The children are starting to talk about, and anticipate, the arrival of Halloween. Please read about how SLC approaches this holiday, and here to learn more about the City of Evanston's Halloween Festivities (including trick or treating information).
Picture Retake/Sibling Day
Picture Day was a success!  An email with access to your child's proofs will be delivered on November 4th. If you would like to schedule a retake or a sibling photo please read this flyer to learn how to sign-up. Retakes will take place at SLC on Friday, November 11th.  If your child is not in school on that day, you can bring them to SLC for retakes.
