Valentines Day Reminders
PPE Kindergarten will celebrate Valentine’s Day on Wednesday, February 14th.We ask that each child create a Valentine Mailbox at home, “just for them,” to use during our game of Valentine Post Office. Each child will have a chance during the school day to deliver their special valentine cards. This is always a fun filled time in the classroom! Start making your special mailbox and writing your cards soon. Have your child write his/her name across the top of the completed mailbox. Please bring completed mailboxes and a valentine card for each child in our class to school on Tuesday, February 13th.
