Dear Parents, Christmas is the most wonderful time of the year. Particularly when we get to celebrate it with our children. The wonder and excitement on their faces is magical.
Our Christmas program is Thursday, December 12th at 6:00 pm in the sanctuary. It is a fun event that will bring Christmas cheer to all. The classrooms will open for the children at 5:30 (please do not bring your child earlier, the teachers that work until 5 would like some time to freshen up). The sanctuary doors will open soon after that, please enter from the main doors and not the side doors. Please do not bring any food or drinks into the sanctuary. We are so excited to be able to have this event!
As 2024 comes to an end, we want to thank you for all your support over the year. We have enjoyed being part of your lives and are looking forward to another great year! May you all enjoy this Christmas season and create memories that last a lifetime.

Pastor Tim’s Thoughts
Hi Preschool Families,
Not sure that you need any Christmas ideas but I am going to give you one. It is one of my favorite gifts to give to families with preschoolers.
My Christmas gift idea is a book, The Jesus Storybook Bible by Sally Lloyd-Jones (It’s available on Amazon, Target and Barnes and Noble).
I love this Bible because it is beautifully illustrated (by the artist Jago) and in a very fun way, the stories in the Bible take on a whole new fresh approach.
God’s story of salvation, from Noah to Moses to King David lead toward the Story of a baby named Jesus. It is a great reminder that “every story whispers His name.” I also love it because it tells familiar Bible stories in a very easy to understand way.
Hope that you and your family have a great Christmas and that you get to enjoy the season when we celebrate Christ’s birth.
Please join us for worship as we celebrate the greatest gift of all:
Jesus the Messiah.

A few reminders…
- When signing your child in or out please remember to do it daily and use full signatures. The person signing your child in or out needs to be over 18 years of age. The sign in/out sheets are legal documents; please don’t let your child “sign” on them.
- Please remember to drive slowly around the preschool. There are private houses and retirement houses around us; someone is always walking.
- BoxTops is an easy way to support the Children’s Center without any expense to you. Download the BoxTop APP, identify Lakeside Presbyterian Children’s Center and then scan your grocery receipt. If you purchased any item with the Box Top logo, the Center would receive a check for all of the funds 2x a year. This is an easy fundraise for our school.
- Scrip Gift Cards are a way to fundraise for our school, and recently we used the funds to install security cameras. You simply select the business, and the dollar amount you want to spend. You pay face value, and the church/school receives a percentage in return. Shop at Albertson’s, Trader Joe’s, Walmart, Home Depot, Target? Restaurants, yep, they participate too. These are just a small sample of the stores and restaurants on SCRIP list. The church takes orders on the last Sunday of the month, you select from a list the store and the amount of your order. Write a check payable to LCPC and turn in your order. Your card for the amount and store you selected will be available for pick-up the following Sunday.
SICK POLICY
- Child has a fever or other potential symptoms illness, such as shortness of breath, persistent dry cough, sore throat, muscle pains or gastrointestinal symptoms (vomiting, nausea or diarrhea), chills with repeated shaking, fatigue, congestion or runny nose within the last 48 hours.
- Colds, Covid, RSV, and the flu are still out there. If your child exhibits any of the symptoms, please keep them home for 24 hours after fever ends without the use of fever reducing medication. We want to make sure your child feels well enough to participate.

CONTRACT INFORMATION
ILLNESS POLICY:
If your child has a fever, vomits or has diarrhea at school or home, they may not return to school for 24 hours after the symptoms are gone.It is very important to keep your child home if they are not feeling well. If you have any doubts it is better to keep your child home one more day than to send then to school when they are not quite up to it. If your child has conjunctivitis (pink eye) they may not return to school until they have received antibiotic treatment for 24 hours. Remember good handwashing is very effective in keeping disease from spreading. Our policy will cut down on the transition of disease to other children, and our staff.
EMERGENCY INFORMATION
If anything has changed with your emergency or contact information, please contact the Preschool Office so we can update and be sure we have your correct information. When a little one is ill, time is of the essence in trying to reach a parent. In addition, if working, please leave-detailed instructions if needed to make it easier for us to contact you at work. Cell phones are not always reliable. We need a backup way to reach you.
