My Entire Preschool Welcome Packet

Over the past several years, I have created and refined this welcome packet for use at my early childhood center (a Montessori preschool). My goal is to give parents all the information they need for their kids to have a great year but to break it up as much as possible so that they actually read it.

Some of these documents are ready to print and go. Others, you may just need to change the name of the center at the top. For some, you will to edit them to suit your school's rules, but you'll have a layout and some wording to get you started.

What's Included:

• Instructions for you
• Welcome Cover Letter with Parent To Do Checklist
• School Calendar
• Daily Schedule
• Supply List
• "Keep Me Home If..." Overview of Sick Child Exclusion Policies with Pictures
• "Dressed for Success" Dos and Don't of What Kids should Wear to School
• "What to Expect- Infants" "What to Expect- Toddlers" and "What to Expect- Preschoolers" a short list of common preschool parent concerns or issues that arise at each age with an "What We Do" and "What You Can Do" section for each issue. There are three of these documents, one for each age group along with a cover letter for each doc.
• "Handbook Highlights" a short list of need-to-know school rules for parents
• Handwashing Procedures- instructions with pictures to encourage parents to practice with their kids at home
• "All About Me" form for parents to fill out and return
• Address Mailing Labels
