Jr. Kindergarten Class
The main focus of our Jr. Kindergarten program is providing students with the educational and social skills to excel in Kindergarten. In the morning, Jr. Kindergarten students will learn and play alongside students in the 4’s class. After the 4’s class session concludes, the Jr. Kindergartners will eat packed lunches and chat with their friends. In the afternoon, the Jr. Kindergarteners will participate in more advanced writing, math, and problem-solving activities and more playtime.
