Transitional Kindergarten Information

Shelley Oswald, TK Teacher

TRANSITIONAL KINDERGARTEN (TK): Children who turn 5 years old between August 12, 2018 and June 1, 2019 are eligible to begin Transitional Kindergarten at St. John’s  School. St. John’s Transitional Kindergarten differs from St. John’s Pre-K experience in that it is a 5-day a week, full day class attached to our Elementary School program.

Transitional kindergarten bridges the path between preschool and kindergarten and gives students the gift of time that will help them build a strong foundation for future school success. It blends social and emotional experience with academic learning, so that students not only learn essential pre-literacy, pre-math, and other cognitive skills, but also develop social and self-regulation skills needed to succeed in school and life. Class size is limited to no more than 18 students.
* TK birth date requirements may be adjusted based on an individual basis.
