Talk with the Thomases
Greetings from the Thomas family:
We extend a warm and sunny Aloha from our little paradise at the Lighthouse! We feel so blessed to have a growing team of children and teachers as we gear up for a great summer ahead. Thank you for being a part of our growing family!
Our website video showcased some precious moments of our school children learning through play. We greatly appreciate your positive feedback on our video and your invaluable support through referrals and reviews.
We are very excited about our upcoming Grand Opening celebration on Saturday, August 5th from 10:00 a.m- 1 p.m. We are partnering with the MouseDreams Foundation at this event to raise funds to sponsor a child with long term pediatric illness and family for a vacation to Disney World. We hope that the magic and happiness of Disney helps provide lasting memories for this family.
Thank you for the opportunity to serve our children & community! Hope everyone has a safe & happy 4th of July!

Teacher Showcase
Ms. Sally is a Founding Teacher here
at Children’s Lighthouse. In fact,
she helped us unpack 1200 boxes of
furniture and supplies in early
March. Since then, she has taken
an active role in our preschool
program and our infant program
most recently. Where ever she is,
she is sure to bring her classroom
management skills with her.
She has earned a Master’s degree in
Social Work and has 20 years
experience working with children in
clinical settings.
When you see Ms. Sally in the halls,
be sure to say, “Hi!” and watch out
for her Baby Buggy.

Character Counts
Throughout the summer months, we continue to enrich
our curriculum with learning opportunities to promote
character values for the children and families we serve.
For July, we will fittingly be focusing on:
The Beacon Buzz
Referral Promotion:
Graciously we have been touring a
lot of families that have been
referred from our current
Children’s Lighthouse families—
and we couldn’t be happier! To
show our appreciation, we are
offering a referral promotion.
When a new family lists you as a
referral source and enrolls, after 90
days, you will receive a $100
tuition credit! For a short time,
you and the new member will also
be entered in a drawing to receive
a WEEK FREE of tuition for one
child. The drawing will take place
at our Grand Opening event on
Saturday, August 5th, 2017!
HELP US REACH OUR GOAL:

As a way to show our appreciation to the families who
have put their trust in us, we are dedicating this space to
them. This month, we showcase the Ward family.
“As first-time parents, we were really nervous about enrolling our daughter in daycare. The team at Children's Lighthouse has been great! We've been very impressed with how open, caring, and friendly everyone's been. Our daughter is very happy and comfortable here. We can tell how excited she is in the morning to go to school to see her teachers and friends! Thank you to our Children's Lighthouse family.” —Jennifer Ward
