If you have a child who will be entering kindergarten in the fall of 2024, make sure you are aware of the following Kindergarten Kickoff events. These events happen at each elementary school, and it is a time for adults to learn more about kindergarten, the enrollment process, and much more! Kindergarten Kickoff is for caregivers and adults only. There will be another event in the fall at each school called Kindergarten Ready, Set, Go! where students will meet their teachers, explore the school, ride a school bus, and meet new friends.
