KINDIEPREP TO KINDERGARTEN TRANSITION 4 YEAR OLDS MOVING ON TO KINDERGARTEN AT AMERICAN ACADEMY
The Elementary Principals and KindiePrep Directors are excited to welcome you to Kindergarten next year! This is a special milestone for children and their parents, and we are overjoyed to be part of that journey with you. While exciting, the transition to Kindergarten can be equally trying on children as well as their families. We want to try to make the transition as easy as possible. We invite you to attend an American Academy KindiePrep to Kindergarten Transition Meeting. Meeting details are listed below for each campus. The KindiePrep Directors and Elementary Principals from each campus will be present to share with you some of the important things which will help in this transition to Kindergarten and to answer any questions you may have. We are asking parents to please leave children at home for this informative meeting. Please stop at the front KindiePrep desk if you have any questions. So that we can plan accordingly, please RSVP for the campus your child will attend Kindergarten next year.
