News from the Head of School
Someone reminded me today that Daylight Savings starts this Sunday. I can’t believe that we are at this point in the year! The children have been inside more than usual this year due to the ice and cold temperatures. We are all looking forward to being able to get outside more and benefit from some sunshine.
As you all know, we are at the end of re-enrollment season and contracts and deposits for next year are due by March 11th. This year many of our classes will be full with our returning students. We also have many potential new students who are anxiously waiting to see if we have room for them. While it is very important to us that we retain our current students and their families, it is also critical that we fill our classes as much as possible to build revenue and maintain quality programs.
My door is open to you if you would like to discuss anything concerning re-enrollment and contracts for next year.
On another note, I think it is important to talk to you all about the requests that went out recently asking you to join the honorary committee for the annual gala. This is a chance for people to give additional financial support to the school and be publicly recognized. I’m sure to some this seems ironic as we are also asking for deposits in such a close timeframe. Fundraising is a vital part of keeping tuition down and helping us to meet the needs of our families. Please consider joining the honorary committee if you can. Also, please know that everyone will be invited to attend the gala at a later date, which may be more affordable to you. This year we will be holding the event at the Heffner House on the RPI campus on May 9th. It is always a wonderful night of spending time with our Taylor School community and celebrating the success of our school.
Think Spring!
Wendy
