Director's
Report |

Dear
FUMC Weekday Program and My Friends' Place
Families,
It
has been such a wonderful summer! I feel
very fortunate to be able to call such a amazing
program my new home. I also look forward to
meeting many of the students that have been off
this summer in the coming
weeks!
This
summer did not lack any excitement! MFP has
been busy on field trips and doing service
projects. We have also introduced a reading
club and have several 300 plus minute readers!
We
are excited to be in the process of
re-accreditation and have already submitted our
application and now in the self assessment
process.
As
we are getting prepared for inservice and the fall
continue to stop by the office or stop me in the
hallways and say
hello!
Thank
you all for the warm
welcome!

NAEYC
Update |
|
Last
month we contacted NAEYC regarding our
accreditation and discovered that we could
re-apply sooner than anticipated.
As
you probably are aware, our assessment visit went
very well. All of our classrooms were scored
between 88-99% and, overall, our program received
100% on a large majority of the
standards.
Since
we have already re-applied we are currently about
1/2 way into the process and need our families
feedback. As part of the self assessment you
will be getting a survey in the next several weeks
asking you about your overall experience in our
program. If you have any questions please
feel free to ask your teacher or any of the Office
Team. |

Confidentiality |
|
Ever
wonder if your child's information is
protected?
Information
about each child (including but not limited to
enrollment forms, medical forms, assessments and
portfolios) are kept in a closed cabinet when not
being used by the child's teacher. All
information is confidential and only shared with
Weekday Program staff in professional consultation
or with people indicated by the child's family.

Spanish
Intense Pre-K |
|
|
We
are very excited to announce that Teresa Gonzalez
will be our teacher for this school
year's class.
If
you are interested in more Spanish
instruction for your older three year old (must be
potty trained) or Pre-Kindergartener, please stop
by the office to talk about our Spanish
Intense program. We have some new options
that might work for
you. |

Introducing
the STAR TEACHER |
|
|
Kristy
Pulcher has worked with children since 1996.
She has taught Pre-K at the Weekday Program for 2
years. This summer she has been working with 3
year olds and the My Friends' Place school-age
kids. Kristy has been married to her husband,
Keith, for 23 years. They have three boys Andrew,
Cameron, and Colby. In her free time she enjoys
shopping at garage sales, thrift stores, and US
Toys.
Ms. Kristy loves working with
children because she gets to see the world through
their eyes and gets to let them know she cares
about them. We are blessed to have Ms. Kristy as a
part of our Weekday Program
family!
If
you think your child's teacher should be the STAR
Teacher, fill out a great teacher
card! | | |
