The countdown to kindergarten has begun! Use this interactive calendar as a guide to help you prepare your child for kindergarten. Complete a learning activity each day this summer. Many dates have a link to a video along with a learning activity. Most importantly, have fun with your child during this special time as they prepare to blast off to kindergarten!
During the summer months, our events usually take a pause while staff celebrates their summer with various activities and vacations with their family and friends. We have been working hard to share opportunities with our families put on by local businesses within the district. We highly recommend looking up more information from the following businesses we have partnered with this past school year! A lot of them have special hours or programs for the summer time. Please click the link below and explore their pages if you are interested in seeing what they may have to offer for you and your family!

Home visits are a vital aspect of supporting families, and Parent Educators work incredibly hard to plan your personalized home visits. Please let us know if, due to illness, or life's other demands, you need to reschedule an in-person visit. We will gladly accommodate your family's needs by changing your in-person visit to a virtual or phone visit. While we understand that life happens and rescheduling can be a part of that, please know that your parent educators count on your visits. Virtual and/or phone visits allow us to maintain that connection in order to continue to offer the best support to your family!
