If your child is already enrolled in our Preschool or you are interested in more information, please be sure to read the Preschool Handbook and the Open House Letter. An email was sent to all currently enrolled students on July 19, 2010. If you did not receive this email, please contact us and let us know.





Monthly Calendar (Opens in a new window)

Classes for Fall 2010 will begin on Aug 30.

See the Tentative Schedule for 2010 - 2011.



Communication: We are working on ways to increase communication. If you would like to receive text messages in addition to email, please send a text message to: preschool@valleycov.org with your child's name in the message. Then we'll create a "text message" list for quick updates. This would be a good way to let you know when an e-mail update has been sent or a quick reminder when events are happening or items are needed from you.


Do we have your e-mail address? If you have not received any e-mails from us, please e-mail us at preschool@valleycov.org so we can make sure we have your correct e-mail address.

 Sign up with eScrip
eScrip is a program where you can register your grocery shopper cards and/or debit & credit cards. When you use registered cards and shop at participating merchants, a portion of your purchases are automatically donated to our Valley Covenant Preschool! (Logli is the same as Schnucks, which is one of the grocery cards you can register.)

Recycle Program To help fund our scholarship fund, we are asking for empty good condition Ink Jet Printer, Fax or Copy Cartridges or Cell Phones. The pre-paid envelopes are now available in the upstairs classroom. Take some extras with you to give to neighbors, friends, coworkers or your office. Each time you change your printer, fax, plotter, cad, etc. cartridge, please place the used cartridge in the mail-in envelope and send off to the retrieval center. AAA Environmental, Inc. will be paying us for every good condition cartridge selected to be remanufactured.
Book orders are always due on the 15th of the month. You can now order them online! Click on the Order Books link.



Things to work on at Home

  • color, color, color, watch your child to see if they are holding the crayon correctly talk about staying in the lines.

  • Practice with your child writing their name. Do not teach them in all upper case letters.

  • Practice the numbers 1 - 5, count objects with your child

4 year olds:

  • Practice with letter flash cards, your child should know the letters in their name.

  • Numbers, we count every day and talk about the numbers on the calendar, your child should be able to count to at least 15 and recognize the numbers 1 -10

  • Practice writing your child's name correctly with them, not in all upper case letters.

Remember to label coats, book bags, and any loose clothing items, etc.

From time to time, we may send home blank color pages. This is because we had extra copies that we didn't have time to do in the classroom. Please have fun with this "homework" and encourage your child to do them with you at home!
