Welcome to Kindergarten!

Dear Kindergarten Families,

Welcome to Kindergarten! We have been busy getting the classrooms organized and can’t wait to meet the students and begin our year together.

Emailing the Team

It is very important to use this email address and send messages to all three teachers rather than just one of us. Thank you!!

Reminders:

  • First day of Kindergarten is Monday, September 13.  This will be a short day which will begin at 8:45 and end at 11:15. Tuesday will be a full day, 8:25-3:30.
  • We go outside in all weather. Please dress your student for the day’s weather. 
  • Pack a water bottle, lunch and a snack that your student can open by themselves. Try practicing at home! PLEASE LABEL EVERYTHING!!
  • Make sure your child has a few extra masks to keep in school.
  • Kindergartners should also have a change of clothing at school. 
  • We have found that a medium sized backpack works better for Kindergartners than a very small one. It should be large enough to hold a lunch, water bottle, snack and any items that we might send home.
  • Physical Education with Anne is on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays.  Children should be sure to wear sneakers on those days. 
  • Please be sure that your child does not bring any toys to school. They may bring a very small stuffed animal if you feel it might be a comfort to them at the beginning of the year. 
  • You can keep up with Kindergarten news by reading the blog!

Wishing you and your family a Happy New Year!
