Kindergarten Boot Camp Guest

Thursday was time for another KBC special guest. Ms Charlotte Anderson, the librarian at Trinity Elementary, came to visit our rising kindergarteners. She read several books, did an activity to get the wiggles out & answered many questions. The kids loved hearing what to expect at the library in kindergarten. It was great to have Ms Charlotte come out & add give more confidence to to our kids in regards to starting school!

KINDERGARTEN BOOT CAMP: AN ACADEMY EXCLUSIVE

The Academy is recognized by the community for our kindergarten specific programs including our one-of-a-kind Kindergarten Boot Camp. Our Pre-K program includes hands-on explorations that create new learning connections in language, math, science, social, emotional and physical development. Children investigate “Big Ideas” and are actively involved in seeking answers to their own questions. Intentional daily plans cover a specific range of guidelines that prepare our children to meet and exceed kindergarten readiness standards for both public and private schools. Kindergarten Boot Camp, offered exclusively by Never Grow Up, is a dedicated summer program that teaches important, yet often overlooked, skills needed to navigate kindergarten with confidence. Skills such as remembering a lunch number, carrying a lunch tray or returning a library book are examples of how we “train” our Academy kids to “be all they can be”!
