Good morning Early Childhood and Lower School Families,
The sun is shining, the birds are singing, and summer adventures are still in full swing! However, back at Roycemore we are busy planning and preparing for the return of our amazing students and families! We are so excited to begin another wonderful year. Last night, many of you attended our Health & Safety Town Hall that detailed our 2021-22 plans to continue to keep our community safe, setting us on a course to have another successful year of in-person learning. We thank you and your continued support in our endeavor to create an exceptional experience for your children. Below you will find information about a variety of topics for both the Early Childhood and Lower School divisions. Please look over and reach out if there are any questions. I look forward to seeing you all very soon!

SWS App - If you are new to Roycemore this year, you will need to download the School Wellness Screener App for your child’s daily wellness screening. Specific directions can be found in the EC & LS Procedures Document towards the bottom of the document. If you can please have your accounts created by the 17th that would be appreciated so I can create tags for your children's backpacks to pass out during orientations.
