Greetings Families of our Pre-Kindergarten Students,

We are delighted to have the opportunity to work with you this school year. This is an important year for your little one, and we are putting plans in place to make their introduction to a full day of school a pleasant experience. The schedule for the first week of school differs for our pre-kindergarteners. This enables the children to be introduced to the environment in a positive and supportive manner. Mrs. Fields, our pre-K teacherwill have time to introduce parents to the expectations of pre-kindergarten and to assess students’ basic knowledge upon entering into pre-kindergarten.

This year, due to the change in the start day, gradual entrance for pre-kindergarten will be slightly different.

The schedule will be as follows:

*Mrs. Fields will contact parents the week of August 28 to schedule conference/screening times.

Tuesday, Sept. 5 / Wednesday, Sept. 6 / Thursday, Sept.7 / Friday, Sept. 8
9:00-3:00
Parent/Teacher Conferences and Student Screening / 9:00-12:00

2:00-3:40
All PM pre-K students attend. Parents may pick up at regular dismissal time. Ms. Fields will explain dismissal procedures during conferences. / 9:05-10:45
All AM pre-K students attend. Parents may send students on bus or drop off at regular arrival time. Ms. Fields will explain arrival and pick-up procedures during conferences.

We are uniform school, and students are expected to wear the uniforms on the first day school and every day after. Please be advised that ripped jeans, high heel shoes, shirts with students exposed and shoes without backs (e.g.Flip-flops, sandals without back straps) are not appropriate clothing for school. Shorts and skirts should meet uniform expectations and be no shorter that right above the knee. The uniform is as follows:

  • Bottom: Navy or Khaki pants, shorts, skirts
  • Top: Light blue, white, or navy blue polo shirts (long or short sleeve)

Have an enjoyable conclusion to your summer vacation.
