August at a Glance

______________________________________________________

PLEASE NOTE:

Early/Late Kinder and Early/Late 1st graders will begin on Monday, August 22.

Teachers will use the assessment data and reach out to their families directly to let them know which group their child will be assigned to.


Kinder/1st Grade Early/Late Schedule: The determination of which students are placed in either the early or late literacy schedule will be based on observation and assessment data collected by the teachers during the first two weeks of school. Because of this extensive placement process, we will do our best to consider sibling alignment. However, we will not be able to honor early/late literacy groups based on parent requests unless there is a documented medical necessity.

Save the Dates!
