Kindergarten Orientation for Next Year Students on Friday May 22nd
The early years are an important time of growth and learning. Our kindergarten program supports each child’s unique strengths through play‑based exploration, social interaction, and the development of early literacy, math, and communication skills.
Kindergarten classrooms are supported by a multidisciplinary team that works with teachers throughout the year to enhance student learning. Families are encouraged to support their child’s education by talking about school each day, fostering a positive school experience, and getting involved where possible.
We look forward to welcoming our kindergarten families on May 22, 2026 the kindergarten orientation.
Please now, there will be no kindergarten classes for current students on this day.
