You will be informed of who your child's teacher sometime the week before school begins. I will send out more information regarding how to update your information on our parent portal soon.
If you have questions before Aug. 2nd regarding registration or other information, please call our district office at 707 542-7375.
TK Kinder Meet and Greet
You and your child are invited to come meet your child's teacher, take a look at their new classroom and playground.
Ms. Bradbury and Ms. Walker kindergarten Meet and Greek will take place Aug. 13th from 4:30-5:30.
Ms. Reynold's Transitional Kindergarten Meet & Greet will take place on the first day of school. Ms. Reynolds is not available before school to do a Meet and Greek as she is moving her son to college for the first time. Parents are welcome to meet the teachers and take a look at the classroom on the first day of school.
TK and Kinder Playdates
We planned to have some optional playdates before that start of school. Unfortunately, construction is delayed and playdates may not be possible this year. If the play structure is installed before school starts, I will let you know. I can hardly wait to meet all of our new and returning families.
