Welcome to Kindergarten!

Students and their parents have two opportunities to meet their kindergarten teachers for the upcoming school year.

  • Elementary School Meet & Greets
    Northpoint, Park Terrace, Woodcrest
    Wednesday, August 29, 4:30 - 6:00 pm

    Spanish Immersion at Westwood
    Thursday, August 30, 5:00 - 6:00 pm

  • KSTART for Kindergarten Students
    Tuesday, Sept. 4 for Kindergarten Plus (K+)
    Tuesday, Sept. 4 or Wednesday, Sept. 5 for AM/PM Kindergarten

To transition smoothly and best prepare all of our kindergartners for their first year, we will be holding Kindergarten Students Transition And Readiness Time (KSTART) meetings on September 4 and 5.

At your scheduled meeting, each student and their parents will be able to put away school supplies, greet new friends, participate in a classroom meeting, take part in learning center activities, and meet individually with their child's teacher to share hopes and dreams for their child for the upcoming school year. The 1-hour small group experience with five or six classmates will be a great way to successfully start the school year. Following each KSTART meeting, students and their families will be given a school tour to become more familiar with their new surroundings. 

A welcome letter with the student's sheduled meeting time will be mailed the week of August 20.

We are looking forward to meeting you and having an exciting new school year full of learning through fun, educational activities, and wonderful new experiences for your kindergarten student!  If you have any questions, please call your school office.
