The MCISD Head Start program begins talking about your child's transition out of Head Start from the very first parent/teacher conference you have. Each parent teacher conference and home visit will revisit your Young Five/Kindergarten plans to ensure they are up-to-date and relevant. Additionally, Head Start staff plan various transition activities and communicates important transition information as it becomes available (i.e. Kindergarten Round Up information, Kindergarten meet and greet events, etc.). For more information on Young Fives and Kindergarten in your district, please find your child's school district link below.
