Kindergarten Orientation is Monday, August 18th, from 10:00 to 11:00 (a.m.) and 11:00 to 12:00 (p.m.)
Supplies that we usually ask for include glue sticks, tissues, #2 pencils, white board markers, and baby wipes. Check Back-to-School sales for these items-- we appreciate it!!
School begins on Tuesday, August 19, 2013-- morning session is 8:05 to 11:25 and the afternoon session is 11:30 to 2:50. Child care for both sessions is available at Champions (408) 356-3178 or Holy Cross (408) 356-6828.
You will receive a letter the week of August 11th stating whether your child will be in the morning or afternoon session. Due to fluctuation in enrollment, we cannot let you know before that time.
For kindergarten readiness, we highly recommend that your child comes into kindergarten:
- recognizing most letters
- writing his/her name legibly, using one upper-case & the rest lower-case letters
- recognizing numbers to 10 & beyond
- knowing names of basic shapes
- having good cutting/scissor skills
