Kindergarten

Classroom

The kindergarten classroom helps children transition between preschool and elementary. The classroom is structured similar to the preschool classroom, but the work teaches higher level concepts. The children in kindergarten work with both preschool children as well as elementary children and enjoy teaching the younger children and learning from the older children. Kindergarteners are seen as leaders to the preschool children and learn leadership skills and responsibility.
