Welcome to Kindergarten at Highroad Academy for the 2020/2021 school year. I am so excited to get to know each of your precious children and work together with you to see your child grow socially, emotionally, academically, and spiritually this year. It was wonderful to meet many of you this past Wednesday at our Kindie Orientation meetings. If you weren’t able to attend, please check your email for the orientation information I emailed you. If you didn’t get that email, please email me at dlarsson@highroadacademy.com or comment on this blog post so we can get that information to you.
I know there has been A LOT of information to absorb, both at a Kindie level, as well as a school wide level, especially because we are working around some different regulations due to COVID. Thank you for taking the time to read all of the info coming your way. I will recap here for you what Kindergarten will look like for us on Sept 8th as well as remind you of our procedures for the first 2 weeks of school.
Sept 8- first “day” of school:
Last week Mrs Teschke had you sign up for a time to come into the Kindergarten room with your child on Sept 8. During this 45 minute visit you will spend some time exploring our Kindergarten room with your child, participating in the activities described on a sheet of paper that I will give you when you arrive. Please have your child dressed in their uniform. They will not need a snack or lunch or backpack as they will only be here for a short time. Here is the sign up schedule:
9:00 am- Christian, Joseph, Aiydah, Elizabeth, Amelia, Felicity
10:00 am- Madison, Molly, Dax, Ethan, Chase
11:00 am- Cobin, Jaxon, Hugo, Liza, Drew
Please arrive as close to your scheduled time as possible. Remember that our primary entrance to the school is through the main doors. I am so excited to meet all of you!
Sept 9-18- half days of school:
Just a reminder that for Sept 9-18 we will be running half days of Kindergarten. Pick up will be at 12 noon. Your child will be waiting for you in line outside the school near the bike rack at the front door. For these half days your child will need a snack and a water bottle but not a lunch. They will also need their backpacks and gym shoes. If your child is registered for part time kindie they will come Monday to Wednesday, and if your child is registered for full time kindie they will come Monday to Friday.
I think that’s it for now! Have a great long weekend and see you all soon!
