Thank you for supporting your child at home by encouraging them to complete the reading/math calendar. We are excited to add our Pre-K 4 students starting the month of December! Pre-K 4 students will only need to complete the reading goal for the month. An adult will need to read to your Pre-k students for 15 minutes, 15 nights of the month. The calendar should be signed on the days that the reading is completed. Reading to your child increases their academic and social/emotional success! It expands their vocabulary, increases their comprehension and communication, and promotes bonding.

Families, we know the holiday season can bring on additional stress. Parent Coaching is a FREE resource that provides parents and caregivers the opportunity to meet with a Parent Coach to guide you through whatever issues you or your child are dealing with.
