Wee Wisdom requires the exclusion of any child who has any illness associated with a fever or any communicable condition such as diarrhea, ringworm, impetigo, head lice, pinkeye, and scabies. If a parent refuses to exclude his/her child, he/she must provide a written statement from a physician indicating that the child’s illness/condition is not highly communicable.

Parents can help: Family Fun Night - Fundraiser Help in Classroom Help on Special Activity Days Help with Crafts Refer Future Students Minor Repairs Other ideas...please share! * To help in the class/with children, you must complete the background check first and have it approved.

Field Trips give us unique opportunities for learning. Approximately 2 field trips are planned each year for your child's benefit. Due to State Regulations that we cannot transport the children, we will not have school on the days that we schedule a field trip. If you would like to have your child attend the field trip that we provide, you will need to bring your child or have someone bring them for you and you or they are responsible for them the whole time.

Every year the children have a Christmas Program and an End of the Year Program *Days and Times to be announced
