Another school year is over for so many students in CA!
As much as we all are looking forward to relaxing and just enjoying a life that is not controlled by the daily school calendar of our children, for many families the summer is also the time of final decisions in regards to which school to send the kids to next year.
Stay tuned. Throughout the summer CaliforniaGermans will have some special reports on “German” schools in California.
Also, for all parents of Firstgraders starting out this fall, have you thought of making this special day of your “Erstklässler” an unforgettable event with the traditional “Schultüte” (Schoolcone). If you are not in the mood of making one by yourself (see instructions to make your own here on CaliforniaGermans ), there is also the option to order one. And you don’t have to have one sent all the way from Germany. KinderCone ships your German “Schultüte” right from Chicago.
Last, German teachers looking for a new challenge might want to check out Bay Area Kinderstube (BAKS) in the San Francisco area (Bay Area Kinderstube 842 Key Route Blvd Albany, CA 94706) . BAKS is looking for a Preschool director and a Preschool teacher. Full job descriptions can be downloaded at http://kinderstube.org/jobs.html . For questions please email board@kinderstube.org
Happy Summer and come by often to check out what’s new on CaliforniaGermans!
