Kindergarten Welcome Days are the first three official days of Kindergarten. This schedule is different than our regular school year schedule as students will only attend school for a half day. All kindergarten teachers and the kindergarten paraprofessionals will co-teach all the students during these days. This means that students WILL NOT be assigned to a classroom teacher/class until after our Kindergarten Welcome Days.
Why are the Kindergarten Welcome Days different from the rest of the school year?
These days are an important part of helping ease your child into the school year, make new friends, and they help the teachers gather information about each child in order to make class lists. During this time the Kindergarten team will co-teach each group. We will administer simple assessments, introduce the kids to our classrooms and routines, meet some new friends and get to know each child a little better.
Are the Kindergarten Welcome Days Required?
Yes, these three days are built into our regular Kindergarten school year schedule/attendance and therefore we expect all students to attend.
Welcome Day Schedule
The morning session runs from 7:50-10:40 and the afternoon session is from 12:00-2:50. A sign-up link is available at the bottom of this page, and HERE starting in May.
We do our best to accommodate requested times, however we do need to limit the number of students in each session. As such, we may need to place your child into a different group if your first choice is already full. If you do not sign your child up for a session, we will assign them a group and let you know.
*Final confirmation of which session your child will attend will be emailed in early August
Teacher placement/class lists will be sent home the evening of August 16, 2024. Kindergartners will begin their regular FULL DAY schedule with their assigned teacher on August 19, 2024.
Class Placement Note:
Just a reminder that Kindergarten families won't find out teacher placement until the end of our Kickoff Welcome Days on August 16, 2024 (For other grades, the district is scheduled to release class placement announcements in Infinite Campus at 4pm on TBA).
