November 2026 Parent Information

Dear Families,

November is here, and we have so much to be thankful for! As we head into the holiday season, we look forward to enjoying fun fall activities, learning about gratitude, and making special memories.

Please mark your calendars for the following upcoming center closing dates:

  • Thursday November 26th Closed for Thanksgiving

We encourage families to plan ahead for these dates.

Giving Thanks Breakfast

Join us on Tuesday November 24th, for a special giving thanks breakfast in your child’s classroom at drop off between 7am-9am.

November Food Drive

This month we will be collecting nonperishable food items to donate to a local food shelf. We want to teach our little ones the importance of kindness, generosity, and helping those in our community. Families are welcome to bring in donations such as canned vegetables, fruit, soup, pasta, cereal, and other nonperishable items. Thank you for helping us spread a little kindness! We will be accepting donations through November 23rd.

Reminders from the Office:

  • Our cut off time to drop off children is 9:30am each morning. If your child has an appointment and will not be at school by 9:30am please check in with the directors.

  • If your child is going to miss a day please email or give us a call.

  • For those of you who are on Facebook go and like our Facebook page. (Noah’s Ark Child Development Centers Inc.)

Tuition Reminders:

  • Weekly tuition is due on Monday or Tuesday each week. Monthly tuition is due the first of each month. Please pay weekly tuition no later then Tuesday and monthly tuition no later then the first week of the month in order to avoid $20 late fee. If tuition is not paid your child will be unable to attend until your account is current. There are 4 weeks in the month of November. If paying monthly please multiply the weekly rate by four. As always if you have questions regarding tuition please feel free to stop in the office.
