80's Night Dinner & Auction

A Letter FROM THE TEACHERS
Welcome!!
Tonight’s fundraiser promises to be a very exciting evening for everyone. It’s always fun to have an
opportunity for parents to get together and a chance to visit with friends and alumni.
We really appreciate all the hard work you parents do each year to make the school so successful. It is
such a pleasure to work in an environment where everyone is committed to making their child’s school
such a positive experience. Ann and I are forever impressed with all the countless hours parents put into
our school to keep it running smoothly.
The idea for SCPC began in 1973 when a group of parents got together to discuss the need for a preschool
in the community. The first class was held the following school year and we moved into our present
building in 1976. Since that time SCPC has been a mainstay in the community. Our mantra “Learning
through Play” is as true today as it was over 40 years ago. While society has changed a lot over the last
40 years, a child’s need to explore their environment and nurture relationships has not. Yet SCPC has
always been so much more than just a preschool. By creating a co-operative preschool all those years
ago, parents have the opportunity to share in their children’s learning experiences and create friendships
of their own. Being a parent of a preschooler is a demanding job. It is amazing what the effect of even
a ten minute “adult” conversation during drop-off can have on the rest of your day - or better yet, the
chance to work in the classroom and watch your child make new friends. Another amazing thing about
SCPC is how many parents leave the school and continue to be very active in the community. Whether it
is P.T.A., Boy Scouts, Girl Scouts, D.A.A, or any community group, there is usually a SCPC alumni involved.
We would also like to give a big thank you to Mandy Watts and all the members of the Events and
Fundraising Committee. They have been working since the summer to put together a wonderful night for
all of us. We’re anxious to see what they did with all the cassette tapes they’ve been collecting and how
they remember the ‘80s!
As always, we have enjoyed teaching your children and watching them grow this year. We look forward
to their big hugs and smiles each day!
Working with young children guarantees
that no two days will ever be the same.
We hope you all have as much fun at
school as we do!
We look forward to tonight’s festivities
and hope that everyone has a “whale of
a time” and as Mr. Campbell always says,
“Bid high and bid often!”.
Love,
Miss Barbara and Miss Ann
