Question 1

What should my child bring each day?

Accepted Answer

Each child should bring a backpack large enough for a 9”x12” folder to fit inside, and a spill proof water bottle labeled with the child’s name, each day. All students enrolled need to have a change of clothing kept in their backpack at all times. All other materials needed for preschool are listed on the School Supply List.

Question 2

Will my child be able to celebrate their birthday in the classroom?

Accepted Answer

We want to celebrate each child’s birthday at preschool, and we strongly encourage each parent to sign-up on the Birthday Calendar for your child’s class to schedule a day of celebration for this very special occasion. On the day of celebration, your child will be the special honoree of the day. Parents should check with their child’s teacher to know when to arrive to set-up for the celebration. Parents should bring napkins, plates, cups and a favorite birthday snack and drink. 
We ask that no tree nut or peanut products be brought because of allergies in our classrooms, so please read labels carefully, and please refrain from bringing cupcakes or cake as these can be very messy for little kids. 
After enjoying a special birthday song and birthday snack, your child will share with the class a special “ME” bag from home. This bag should include about 5 special items about the Birthday Honoree. Examples include: photos of family, pets or special trips, favorite toy, favorite book, favorite movie or other treasured items.

Question 3

How will my child be disciplined?

Accepted Answer

At New Discoveries, we encourage individuality and want each child to be as successful as possible. Every adult who cares for children has a responsibility to guide, correct, and socialize children toward appropriate behaviors. These adult actions often are called child guidance and discipline. Positive guidance and discipline are crucial because they promote children's self-control, teach children responsibility and help children make thoughtful choices.
Intervention strategies include but are not limited to the following:
1. One-on-one relationships building activities such as the I Love You Rituals
2. Class-made books individualized for the student. Individual picture cards to support behavioral expectations.
3. Ways for the student to be of service to the school, others or his or her community.
4. Noticing and describing the child’s body, face and actions, labeling of feelings, and acknowledging or true intent.
5. I Am: Feeling Chart, I Choose: Self-Control Board, and use of other Conscious Discipline methods.
6. Assessing, teaching, or scaffolding missing executive skills.
