Good Afternoon Parents,

April brings warmer weather and sunny days; a perfect recipe for spending time outdoors, going to a park, throwing balls, drawing with chalk, going for walks, and enjoying the wonders of spring! Parents, please take the time to point out all the miracles we can see in our everyday life. Take time to show your children how to fly a kite, start riding a tricycle, bicycle and scooter and spend a lazy afternoon watching clouds and blowing bubbles. Keep in mind, your child is always learning!

It seems cliché to say that this school year has absolutely flown by. However, it is now April and we only have two months left of the 2024-2025 school year. April is a busy month as we prepare for Easter and the Resurrection of the Lord. Two-year-olds are learning about shoes and the three-year-olds are exploring water. We just completed our Career Week where children learned about medical fields, law, construction, sales and accounting. Thank you to all who helped make this event so special. When we return from Easter recess, we will be hatching butterflies in the classrooms.

As you continue to plan for the month, please remember these special dates:

April 13 – Palm Sunday
April 14-21 – School closed – Holy Week / Spring Break
April 20 – Easter
April 22 – Happy Earth Day
April 23 – St. George – Church attendance
May 1 – Protomayia Wreaths – Adult/child activity. 11:30 AM, gym

Our next Open House is May 8 at 7:00 PM. The Tiny Stars class has limited seats available. There are several openings in our classes for 3- and 4-year-old children. Please continue to spread the word about our wonderful school. If your child is returning for the 2025-2026 school year, we are now accepting enrollment paperwork.

Thank you for supporting Stars Academy.

Regards,

Cathy Helfrich,
Education Director
