Give Back To Our Caregivers Plus A Farewell To Mrs. Schorsch

THE SCHOOL YEAR IS COMING TO A CLOSE! TAKE THIS OPPORTUNITY TO GIVE BACK TO YOUR CHILD’S TEACHER AND GIVE A FAREWELL TO ONE OF OUR PRE-K 3’s TEACHERS, KIRSTEN SCHORSCH.

Teacher & Aide Program

We like to give parents an opportunity to give back to the teachers, aides, and caregivers at Claire’s Day School through the Teacher & Aide program. As we did at Christmas, we will collect funds for each class, and use the money to purchase a Visa or MasterCard gift card for each teacher & aide. If you would like to contribute, follow the instructions below.

  • We keep one envelope per preschool class in the office.  To contribute, you may:
    • Bring cash
    • Bring a check made out to BRIAN LEE
    • Venmo (username: brianvlee)
    • Paypal (www.paypal.me/brianvlee)
  • We are only acting as a go-between for you and the teachers & aides, in that we are collecting the money and using it to purchase the cards to give to them.  The gift is from you to your child’s teacher and classroom aide, and is not considered school income. As such, we cannot charge your card on file for teacher gifts. The credit card system is linked to the school account, and not to us personally. You may, however, link a credit card to your Venmo or PaypaI account if you prefer to pay with a credit card.
  • Brian will cash out checks made out to him and place the cash in the appropriate envelope. For Venmo or Paypal donations, Brian will respond to each message so that you know it has been received and cashed out accordingly. Please include your child’s name in the memo, as sometimes the accounts are linked to maiden names, and I want to make sure all donations are placed in the correct class envelopes!
  • Unless you specify otherwise, donations will be split between your child’s teacher and aide. We do not pool the money from all classes and split it evenly with all of the staff. This way, the money you donate will go directly towards a gift card for those who teach and care for your child. You may specify how much of your donation you would like to go towards a particular teacher or aide if you would like. We will, however, take a small percentage (approximately 5%) from each class envelope so that we may also purchase gifts for our floaters, who do not belong to a permanent classroom, but are just as important in helping to run our school.
  • Please have all donations in by TUESDAY, MAY 21st.  This will give us time to purchase the cards that evening and gift them to the teachers on the last day of school on Wednesday, May 22nd. Brian will send you an email with the amount given by your class this day as well.
  • We do not discourage you from giving a personal gift on your own to your child’s teachers if you would like. We offer this either as an alternative or addition, as it is quick and easy during this busy time of year, and a small donation from each family adds up to a generous sum for each teacher and aide.

Farewell Mrs. Schorsch

Kirsten Schorsch

Kirsten Schorsch, Pre-K older 3’s / young 4’s teacher, is calling it a career after cultivating young minds the past 12 years. Sometimes referred to as the “boy teacher” for having raised three now grown boys, her motto of “you get what you get and you don’t throw a fit” helped children begin to understand that life does not always revolve around our wants, but that learning to share and getting along with others yields its own rewards. In addition to teaching her class, she has been instrumental in aiding Mrs. Janss with her enrichment classes, and she also took the reins for the gardening projects on Boedeker. We are so grateful for all of her years of service to our school, and we hope to be lucky enough to have her substitute teach or plant some foliage for us!

2022-2023 school year programs!

 

To our families past, present, and future –

Thank you for helping us remain OPEN during these turbulent times.

With your tremendous support, we are grateful to be given the continued opportunity & privilege to provide child care & education to the exceptional level for which we strive.

Welcome parents, and thank you for considering Claire’s Day School for your child’s early care and education!

We are a family owned & operated Parent’s Day Out (PDO) & Preschool, conveniently located in a fabulous north Dallas facility at Northaven Road & the Dallas North Tollway.

Though not a full-time child care center, our hours of operation are longer than typical Parent’s Day Out or Pre-K programs, with the option to attend up to a 7hr (8:30 – 3:30) day & up to five days per week.

Our calendar for the current school year is available here, and the calendar for the upcoming summer and following school year programs may be viewed here if available.

If you are interested in enrolling your child for a summer or school year program, we encourage you to schedule a tour to see our facilities and meet the caregivers or teacher.  To do so, please close this pop-up, click on REGISTER on the top right of our website, and follow the link to registration inquiry.  Tours are offered daily by appointment at 10:00 or 10:30.

If you have already toured and would like to proceed with registration, first make sure to familiarize yourself with our parent handbook, as well as tuition policies & holiday calendar for the term your child is enrolling:

If registering* your child for the CURRENT school year (September – May), please review our current school year tuition policies & current school holiday calendar.

If registering* your child for NEXT school year (September – May), our upcoming school year tuition policies & upcoming school year holiday calendar will be available when registration for these future terms opens (usually by late January / early February).

If registering* your child for our SUMMER session, carefully review our summer tuition policies & program dates, which will be available when enrollment for summer term programs begins (coincides with enrollment period for the next school year –typically in late January / early February).

These documents are always available on the DOCS/FORMS section of our website.

*Be certain of your child’s registration, as non-refundable & non-transferable tuition fees will be charged once registration is submitted, as a space in a classroom with limited availability is then reserved for your child. 

 

Late admissions accepted if space is available! To inquire about immediate openings, please call (214) 368-4047
