The countdown is in single digits: NINE days until we officially begin the 2025-26 school year!

To prepare, set a consistent bedtime and wakeup schedule—and practice each day during the week before school. A well-rested start ensures focus and enthusiasm for learning!

August is Get Ready for Kindergarten Month! With the first day of school coming up on August 18, now is a great time to help our youngest learners feel confident and excited for their big transition. 🎒

Over the next couple weeks, we encourage families to:

➡️ Practice morning and bedtime routines
➡️ Read together daily
➡️ Talk about what to expect in kindergarten
➡️ Build social skills through play and conversation

Together, we’re helping our students feel safe, ready, and “Pointed in the Right Direction!”
