Ms. Hill's Kindergarten Class
Welcome to Kindergarten!
It is an absolute JOY to have your child in my class this year! I know that entering Kindergarten can be an incredibly exciting milestone for both you and your child. I am looking forward to working together to help your child to learn and grow in so many amazing ways this year!
If you have any questions, you may email me at kellyl.hill@cms.k12.nc.us.
Important Announcements
School begins on Monday, August 28th. However, unlike other grade levels, Kindergarteners' first week of school is with a staggered entry schedule. Your child will be assigned to attend school on ONE day between Monday, 8/28 and Thursday, 8/31. Beginning Kindergarten in this way allows students to get acclimated to their classroom and school routines in a small group rather than with the whole class. Teachers also use staggered entry days to administer assessments to determine students' skill levels in several areas. ALL K STUDENTS attend school with their entire class on Friday, 9/1.
Please send an extra set of clothes to school with your child (underwear and socks included) to keep in their cubby. Often, students need a change of clothes unexpectedly due to bathroom accidents or spills. Please send these in a ziplock bag labeled with your child's name.
Here is the Kindergarten Supply List. Specifically for our class, you may skip the following items: spiral notebook, plastic pocket folders
Please have your child bring their supplies to school on their staggered entry day. Please do not label ALL items with your child's name, as they will be shared among the class. Please do label your child's headphones with their name as these will be used only by your child.
