Valentine’s Day Celebration Details

Toddler Students: Teachers will recognize Valentine’s Day during the children’s snack time.  There will not be a valentine exchange in the Toddler program.

Primary Students: Children should bring in one handmade Valentine card for reading at the Valentine’s Day celebration.  The Valentine should express the child’s feelings of love for his/her family, school, teachers, animals or friends, etc.  Personal valentines may be sent from home; they will not be distributed at school due to time limitations.  Our celebration will consist of sharing healthy treats and reading the children’s Valentines. Special nutritious treats are welcome.

Junior I Students: Each child is invited to exchange Valentine cards, either handmade or purchased, within their homeroom group.  Children should just sign their cards and not address them to specific children. Special nutritious treats are welcome.

Junior II Students: The Junior II students will make a Valentine for a family member.

Middle School Students: Middle School will not have a Valentine’s Day celebration.  Instead, there will be a student presentation on the origin of Valentine’s Day.  Middle School students should not bring Valentine’s Day cards to school.
