Dear Families,

Welcome to kindergarten at Summit Elementary!  We are so excited to begin this new school year with your child.  We would like to get to know your child prior to the start of the school year.  Please select a time, using the link provided, for your child to come to school to complete a short literacy/math skills assessment with one of us.  Please let us know if these times do not work.

During this time, we will assess your child on some pre-kindergarten skills such as, letter identification, number identification, counting, etc. Due to current health mandates, we will ask that you remain outside.  We will have a few forms for you to complete (how your child will be getting home, if your child will be eating breakfast, etc.).  Please bring your own writing utensil in order to prevent the spread of germs.

 Please do not go to the main entrance of the school.  Meet us at the doors on the East side of the building, facing the water plant.  There is plenty of shade outside by these doors.  We will be able to see you when you arrive through the windows of our classrooms.  Please be patient as you may need to wait a few minutes if we are finishing up with another child.  We have built in a 10 minute buffer to hopefully avoid any delays.

 Please make sure your child comes to their assessment time with a properly fitted mask.

We will also be offering an opportunity for your child to virtually meet us during an optional Zoom Meet and Greet on Thursday, August 13 between 5:30-6:30 pm.  Please join us at any time during this timeframe for just a few minutes!  This is just a quick way for your child to meet us before we begin testing and before the start of the school year.

Finally, we will be contacting you via email on Wednesday, August 19 to let you know which class your child has been placed in for this school year.

We look forward to meeting your child and learning and growing together during this upcoming school year! 

Kind Regards,

Ms. Diane King & Mrs. Mary Hood

Kindergarten Team
