Our school year is coming to an end.
Our school year is coming to an end. There has been so much growth in these kiddos! We, the Staff, have been very fortunate to have had the opportunity to watch their growth.
The teachers are very busy finishing up their work for the school year and we/I want to take this opportunity to thank all of our families for their commitment to our school and your child’s first educational experience. It is because of your work that we are able to continue striving to be a great program.
It is always hard to say goodbye; sadly, a few board members will be graduating out of our school and off to Elementary. I would like to thank them for the work that they have done.
Deborah Hesse – Purchaser and caregiver to our rabbits and chicken. She has kept our pantry well stocked and has been devoted to the care of our animals!
Jennifer Hoskins – Financial Clerk: She kept our extended care billing in great order, and has worked at all of our fundraising events.
Sherry Scardino – Fundraising Chair: managed our many fundraising events, most recently the Silent Auction. It was a successful and fun evening.
Susan Miranda- Publicity; posted and organized our newsletter and social events to help keep you informed.
Thelma Hernandez- Secretary: Kept the minutes for our board and business meetings.
Katarine Amaral-Carneiro- Housekeeping; she kept our school looking clean and fresh. Helping to preserve a clean place for our children to learn.
Juan Becerra- Maintenance: He has kept our school safe and repaired. Keeping our school a safe place for our children to play.
They all have done an amazing job. The Staff, Board members and I thank you!
We couldn’t have done it with out your commitment.
THANK YOU!!!
I hope all of you have an opportunity to come back and visit us. We love to hear about the new changes in your life.
Always, Teacher Brigidan

Director’s notes March 2010
On behalf of all of the families at Millbrae Nursery School I want to thank Pizza Guys (Katarine and Kaito Amaral-Carneiro) for the delicious pasta dinner that they catered. The food was amazing.
Thank you also to all the parents who helped organize the night. It was a wonderful event. Thank you to Lily and Richard Wang-Harvey for enriching our preschool’s Chinese New Year experience.
The kiddos and families enjoyed it all!
Our Spring Party will be on Saturday, March 27th, hosted by the Pre K Class. Please show your support by attending. We are looking for non-sweet donations for the goodie bags.
Please remember that our business meeting is on Tuesday, March 9th at 7pm. One representative from each family MUST attend to vote on the budget for next year. It is very important that a family member is present.
This is the time of year I am so appreciative of the “park” (as the kiddos call it) that we have as our play yard!!! The fresh
air, flowers in bloom, it looks as if SPRING is finally on its way.
Thank you for all that you do to keep our school looking so wonderful and for your constant support!
Always, Brigidan
