Valentine's Day Party

Valentine’s Day is less than three weeks away. The classroom parties will be held on Monday, February 14th from 1:15 to 2:00. The highlight of this party is the Valentine’s card exchange.

Let’s plan early by consulting with the teachers to seek guidance and preferences for the Valentine’s party. Second, utilize the Valentine’s Day Party letters (English & Spanish) found in the PTO/Room Parents section of the school’s website to inform parents, solicit donations and volunteers. Feel free to modify the letters…you may want to ask parents to contribute specific items rather than monetary contributions. Plan to send the letters home soon, but no later than February 2nd to give you and the parents enough time to plan. Third, you (or the teacher) will need to compile a list of the students’ names to accompany the party letter. The list is needed for the students to address their Valentine’s Day cards. Lastly, make this a fun and meaningful party by using creative learning activities, crafts, or games. In addition to the Room Parent Best Practices Guide, here are some additional resources for you to use:
