Happy New Year Year!!! It is hard to believe that it is four months into the school year.
As we look back, we see how much the children have changed and learned. Let us
remember that there is still more to learn this year. The children and teachers are
settling back into their routines after a fun break.
Most ofour new families come from you, our current parents by referrals. We do offer a
referral program. We give current families a free week of tuition for any new families
that sign up and attend at least a month. If you have referred someone and we have not
acknowledged you please let us know.
It is very importat to us at Kids Town that we go above and beyond to fulfill all of your
child’s developemtal needs. Please give us any feedback on how we are doing and if you
feel there areas we can improve upon.
As winter continues and we have any possible school closings or delays due
to weather conditions announcements can be found on our Facebook Page
and WVEC, Channel 13.

hope that you had a wonderful winter break with plenty of memorable times with your
family. As we settle back into our routine at school we will be spending sometime
