We invite PLNY member families to join us for a conversation between Barbara H Scott, PLNY's Executive Director, and leaders from Speyer, Buckley, Barrow Street, and Temple Emanu-El. Together our panelists will offer insight into all you need to know about Kindergarten school visits. Whether your child will be interviewed in October or January, PLNY can help you reflect on the what's what, as you manage your family's kindergarten journey.

An exciting time for the whole family, beginning Kindergarten should be fun and the interview is a first step. Our aim is to empower you as a parent, so you can empower your child. There are no silly questions, only the adventure of learning what to expect, how to prepare and whether the interview is the make or break moment that parents worry about.

Topics Explored:

  • Kindergarten interviews, visits, and playgroups
  • How your child will engage with school professionals and what activities they might complete
  • Interview and playgroup prep: How to dress, when to arrive and knowing your child's temperament
  • Handling your child's separation for their interview, playgroup or visit
  • The transition to Kindergarten and how admissions is a first step of a developmental milestone
