💡 𝐓𝐢𝐩 𝐓𝐮𝐞𝐬𝐝𝐚𝐲!

Did you know you can add additional family members, caregivers, and approved pickup people directly to your child’s brightwheel account?

Keeping your child’s contact list current helps make sure the right people have access to the information they need and that approved pickup information is up to date.

Take a look at today’s Tip Tuesday graphic for the steps. It only takes a few minutes to review your child’s contacts and make any needed updates.

Have questions or need help? Reach out to the office and we’ll be happy to help!

✨ Wonder Wednesday ✨

Wonder begins with moments like these.

A tiny chick. Gentle hands. Curious minds. Big smiles.

Some of the most meaningful learning happens when children are encouraged to ask questions, explore, create, and discover. Whether they are caring for a new classroom visitor, planting seeds, or using their imaginations during dramatic play, every experience helps build confidence, kindness, problem solving, and a lifelong love of learning.

These everyday moments are what make early childhood so special.

We are counting down the days until our classrooms are filled with new friendships, happy reunions, curious minds, and plenty of moments just like these. We cannot wait to share another wonderful year with our Northminster families. 💚

As we get ready to welcome everyone back for a new school year, we'll be sharing a few simple tips to help your family get school ready.

Today's tip is to make sure your child has a 𝐫𝐞𝐜𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐟𝐢𝐥𝐞 𝐩𝐢𝐜𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐞 in Brightwheel.
An updated photo helps our teachers and staff begin learning names and faces before the first day. It also makes it easier to identify your child throughout the school year.

If your child's picture needs to be updated, it only takes a minute. Just follow the steps in the flyer to upload a new photo.

Thank you for helping us prepare for a great start to the school year. We can't wait to see everyone soon!
