Transitional Kindergarten

Is your child old enough to attend kindergarten but isn’t quite ready? We offer a program for children who may not be developmentally, emotionally or academically ready for kindergarten yet. Just because a child qualifies to go to kindergarten doesn’t mean parents have to send them to school yet. Think of Transitional Kindergarten as a year of being “red shirted.” Any child who is old enough to go to kindergarten but has chosen to wait another year is a perfect candidate for this program. 
 
Monday – Thursday: 9:00 am – 3:00 pm 

  • Enrollment is limited to 16 children with two teachers in each classroom.
