Intended for students not currently enrolled in a pre-school program, the evening will feature a variety of interactive hands-on learning experiences to help families understand the academic expectations and routines of Kindergarten. Attendees will receive practical strategies to support learning at home and connect with district staff in a welcoming environment. The goal of the event is to help children enter Kindergarten with familiarity, foundational skills, and excitement for learning, while families feel informed, confident, and connected. Raffle prizes will be drawn for attendees.
