Kindergarten is a fantastic year of both social and academic growth. They will learn to be scientists and explore the world around them in new ways using 21st century skills. They will be map makers and historians with knowledge of what it means to be a good citizen and learn about many of the people who have contributed to America’s history. Students will complete Kindergarten with well-developed number sense and will have explored the concepts of money, time, patterns, and geometry. The kindergarten year lays the foundation for future success in all aspects of life. We work hard to develop our student’s sense of wonder and excitement about the world.
Kindergarten students are immersed in a text-rich environment to develop phonological and phonemic awareness, phonics, vocabulary, comprehension and an appreciation for reading. Students will learn to comprehend and think creatively as they relate stories through drama, retelling, drawing and their own writing. Teachers encourage the development of reading skills that are foundational to effective comprehension and critical thinking.

Teachers encourage the development of writing skills that are foundational to effective written communication and critical thinking.
