Dear Parent(s),
I want to personally welcome your child to Kindergarten. I am thrilled to have your child in my classroom!
The booklet, sent home on the first day of school, has been prepared to assist you to helping your child make the happiest and best possible adjustment to Kindergarten and the many new experiences it has to offer. We feel that the information presented in the booklet can help the home and school become joint partners to better helping your child reach his/her greatest potential.
I am looking forward to a successful year together!
