Meet and Greet for Kindergarten
Friday, August 29, 2025 from 8:45-10:15 am
This is a drop in event, there will not be a formal presentation. Bring your child to come see their classroom and meet their new teacher!
Parents and kindergartners will enter through the doors at the end of the kindergarten hall- NOT the front doors of the school. School age siblings should go directly to their classroom, not to the kindergarten classroom.
First Day!!
The first full day of school will be on Tuesday, September 2. (Monday, September 1 is a holiday.)
We encourage families to begin using their primary form of transportation on this day. We know you are excited (and nervous) for your child, but we ask that parents refrain from walking their child to the classroom. We will have adults stationed all along the hallways to ensure our kindergartners get to the right classroom!
