Kindergarten Families,
We welcome you to E.M. Holt and we look forward to working with your child this year. Next week kindergarten students will come to school on their assigned staggered entry day and will work with several of our staff members. We will then make class rosters and hold our Kindergarten Meet the Teacher event on Wednesday August 28th from 4-6pm. Please wait and bring your child’s school supplies on Wednesday evening. All kindergarten students will return back to school on Thursday, August 29th to begin the year with their assigned classroom teacher.
Here are a few reminders to make things run smoothly next week:
Please check out the
overview of our car rider traffic pattern so you know how the traffic pattern will operate.
If you plan to walk your child into school you will need to come through the car rider line to access the parking lot. You will check your child in for staggered entry at the front of the kindergarten/first grade building.
Please take a moment to fill out the Kindergarten Transportation Form to let us know how your child will go home on the first day of school as well as how they will normally go home from school.
Kindergarten students that ride the school bus must have an adult or older sibling in 4th or 5th grade present at the bus stop in order for the bus driver to let the student get off the bus. As a safety precaution, if a parent is not present the student will be brought back to school
Kindergarten students will have a snack time each day. Please pack a snack for your child. We will provide goldfish and a bottle of water on their staggered day.
It is helpful to pack a change of clothes in your child’s backpack.
We are looking forward to a wonderful kindergarten year!
