Preparing for 1st Grade

Dear Kindergarten Parents,
 
As our 2021-2022 school year comes to an end, we reflect on the tremendous growth we have seen in our students, our children. We greeted them on the first day of school and were privileged to watch them flourish throughout the year. As always, we are truly grateful for your partnership in our children’s education.
 
Many parents have asked us “what can I, as a parent, do to make sure my child continues to thrive academically over the summer?” Aside from saying Tefilah each morning, we have compiled resources in an effort to help your child maintain all that they have learned throughout the school year. Utilizing the links below will allow your child to take on the next school year with confidence!
