This program is intended for all incoming Kindergarteners who are enrolled in the general education program for the 2022-23 school year. We hope you can make it work, but if you cannot, that’s ok! We’re looking forward to meeting your Kindergartener in September where we will have similar activities planned and plenty of opportunities to work together. This four day long opportunity is completely voluntary.

All of these activities will provide the Kindergarten team with feedback about your student’s strengths and areas for growth, which will inform our teaching and their learning. Students will play outside and do partner and independent work activities. There will be a variety of activities such as taking off and putting on their coat, writing their name, and participating in a read aloud that is led by one of the teachers. They will not necessarily work with the teacher to whom they are assigned. Once students have arrived, they will be greeted by our teachers.

Students will be provided a snack but meals will not be offered. Parents and guardians will need to drop off and pick up their student each day, as transportation will not be provided. It will also provide our Kindergarten students the opportunity to become familiar with their new school, make some new friends, and make connections with important adults.Īugust 15-18, 2022 from 8:45 – 11:45 a.m. Engaging activities throughout the week will help prepare our students for their start in Kindergarten and help us identify their academic, behavioral and social skill sets so that we can plan support accordingly for the upcoming school year.
