Countdown to Kindergarten!

Spread the word!  If you or someone you know has a child that will be starting Kindergarten next year, they need to contact the office ASAP to get signed up for our evaluation and visitation day scheduled for May 9th!  We are planning to offer both a Young 5's classroom as well as traditional Kindergarten for the 2023-24 school year if we have enough students to fill a Young 5's class.
