Join us to learn what matters most for a smooth kindergarten start — in simple, real-life terms.

Date: Saturday, Feb. 21, 2026

Time and Locations:

• In person: 9:30-11:30 a.m., Teacher Administrative Center (TAC), 3215 Cuming St.
• Virtual option: 9:30-10:30 a.m. - join from home! Link will be provided after registration.

Most families have the same questions:

• “What does my child need to know?”
• “How do I prepare them?”

What families will get out of this event:

• Clear, practical steps you can take at home to help your child feel confident and ready.
• A real understanding of what kindergarten looks like — routines, expectations and the kinds of skills teachers hope children practice before starting school.
• An opportunity to connect with staff and other families who are preparing for the same transition.
• A free family pack filled with fun, easy activities you can start right away.

Childcare: Free childcare will be available on-site.

Registration: Please RSVP by Feb. 18 to plan for support and childcare.
