Sticky Notes - Week of April 8
Mon, Apr 8 3:34pm
Welcome back everyone....We have a lot of information to share with you this week!
 
Our Pot of Gold Fundraiser
So far, we've collected $220 towards our matching donation goal of $1,750. There's still time to contribute! Please share this with friends, family, and anyone you feel would like to support our amazing school! Any donation is greatly appreciated and will help us maintain the magic that is Bunker Hill.
 
Fundraising helps us to maintain some of the things we feel make Bunker Hill special and a unique experience for young children and their families. Things like:

  • Low ratios: giving optimal opportunities for coaching social and emotional learning 
  • Targeted time for PreK students to learn in a small group
  • Paying our staff a competitive wage, we love our teachers and strive for staff retention!
  • Maintaining an outdoor learning environment like no other in the bay area
  • Fall and spring social gatherings for families
 
Donations can be made by check, cash, Zelle, or https://gofund.me/be8d5c87 
 
April Community Clean/Family Commitments Make-Up 

Rather than hold the Community Clean on April 20, we will instead be creating a list of tasks that need to be completed for families to sign up for. This will help families who are required to do their second community clean and/or have missed a membership meeting. We'll email each family this week to remind you if either of the above applies. Please let Tiffany know if you have any questions. 

 

Quail Eggs 

Our quail eggs were placed in the incubator on March 29 and are expected to begin hatching next Monday! Please help us teach the children to not go beyond the taped area so that we can protect the eggs.

Building Safety
