A Message from the PreK 4 and Kindergarten Teams
​Dear Parents and Caregivers,
​
Please help us make your child's first day of school be a positive experience by following these guidelines:
  1. Review the Kinder Top 10 list to help your child prepare for their first day of school. Review the Transitioning into PreK4 link above. 
  2. Occasionally there will be a few tears.  Please give your child a reassuring hug and then leave. If we have any concerns, we will call you. 
  3. Be sure to communicate how your child will go home on the first day and how they will be eating lunch.
  4. All toys and cuddlies are asked to remain at home.
Thank you in advance for helping your child and their teacher with a great start to Cowan Kindergarten. We look forward to seeing you soon!
​
Sincerely, 

The  Cowan PreK 4 and Kindergarten Teams
