THIS MONTH'S CHARACTER TRAIT
Picture day April 5th!
Z-Pass information!
Connect to Kindergarten!
Join Us Thursday, April 21st!
incoming Kindergarten Families:
It’s time to prepare for kindergarten! Each spring we hold a special event for families who have a child beginning kindergarten in the fall. The evening gives students and families the chance to meet school staff, become familiar with their school and learn the next steps in beginning kindergarten.
At Connect to Kindergarten, families will have the opportunity to meet the school’s principal and kindergarten teachers. They’ll also learn more about their school and topics such as registration, absences, riding the school bus and how to prepare for the start of kindergarten.
We can’t emphasize enough how helpful participation in this event is to both families and elementary schools. Connect to Kindergarten helps children become excited and comfortable with starting school as well as gives parents the opportunity to ask questions. Also, participation helps schools project enrollment numbers and prepare the classroom for your student.
Each DDSD elementary school is hosting their own in-person Connect to Kindergarten event at 6pm on Thursday, April 21.
