NATIONAL DAY OF PRAYER
We are excited for this year’s National Day of Prayer event on May 4 @ 6:30 PM at Highland Hope UMC. We plan to once again offer hot dogs, chips, and cookies along with a short program for our annual event. Mark your calendars now. We will also offer a prayer for our schools, our program and our community. #WeHOPE you’ll join us.
UPCOMING CARE OPPORTUNITIES
For your planning purposes, the following extra care will be available for you if needed:
May 5: 11:45AM Early Release Day (registration and fee required)
Our registration forms can be found by visiting our website and scrolling to the Forms section. You’ll see options for our Early Release and Day Camp registration forms. Our full-day camp dates are held at Highland Hope United Methodist Church, and your students should arrive with their lunch, a water bottle, and any other items Ms. Shawna has requested.
All of our schedule information is available on our Google Calendar with information posted at the parent kiosk as well.
END OF SCHOOL SCHEDULE
Reminder that the last day for Kids in Christ Latchkey for the 2022-2023 school year (as shown on our Google Calendar) will be Wednesday, May 24! Thursday is a scheduled half-day for students. KiC staff will be migrating supplies and equipment from the school to Highland Hope UMC in preparation for Summer Camp.
SUMMER CAMP PAYMENT INFO
There are a couple of federal holidays during Summer Camp, Memorial Day and Independence Day. You will not see a reduced tuition during those weeks. When creating our summer budget and payment schedule, we plan out all costs, activities, etc. and divide this by the 11 week program, not a daily rate. I just want to provide this information in advance to help avoid confusion at the time of billing since this always leads to some questions. The alternative would be to increase the weekly tuition by a few dollars so I could then show we didn’t charge for the 2 holidays. The math works out the same, but the second option is simply more complicated. Please let me know if you have any questions.
SUMMER CAMP SCHEDULE
The Summer Camp schedule of field trips and swim days has been added to the Google Calendar for your review and familiarization. You can view the calendar from our website or subscribe to it so you’ll have information available on your phone or tablet as well.
AUTOPAY ONLINE REGISTRATION FORM
If you’d like to sign-up to have payments automatically applied to your banking account, debit card, or credit card, a new option is now available to complete an online form, bypassing the printed form process. A button has been placed on our website that should initiate an email to me requesting the online registration link. The link expires 24 hours after being sent, making this request coordination necessary. If the button to email me does not function properly (some mobile browsers don’t like these buttons), simply send me an email to request the online registration form.
APRIL IS FINANCIAL LITERACY MONTH
This may be at the tail end of the month, but I have made the cutoff nonetheless. If you have an interest on the topic of personal finance, I have created a free ebook on strategies for understanding and managing your finances better. You are welcome to download a copy in PDF or EPUB format from this Dropbox location: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/dxpzlup0cikmx7o/AABWI-l3cUxJ3lPRb46AMpmHa?dl=0&fbclid=IwAR1XmgDg_eAfkEDb1gMkDz1v9h2Dhnaf3YUnDXmMPYwur-erLUMD76UH7j8
