Kindergarten Students
Gradual entry makes for a smoother transition as students adapt to a new school environment, new teachers, new classmates, and new procedures. Students initially attend for two days in a smaller group before the whole class is together on the Monday of the second week. The amount of time then gradually increases until the students are attending through the lunch hour and for a portion of the afternoon. The first full day of school is Monday September 21st.
