Transitional Kindergarten (TK)

$3100

Transitional Kindergarten is geared to the students who would benefit from an extra year to grow before entering the rigors of Kindergarten. Students in this class often, but are not required, have late fall birthdays. An extra year of maturity can greatly impact a child’s social emotional growth as well as their academic progress. This program follows a modified Kindergarten curriculum that mirrors concepts students will be learning when they move to that level. Students work in centers on academic concepts that provide a smaller ratio of child to teacher and allows us to focus on the skills we are working on with each student on a more in-depth level. TK gives your child the confidence to enter Kindergarten and be successful in the classroom. Enrichment classes are also available for this age to build their stamina for a full day Kindergarten.
