Hello, Future Caleb Cougars!

We can’t wait to welcome our newest batch of Caleb Cougars to kindergarten in the fall. In the meantime, here are some frequently asked questions and our answers. 

When and where is Kinder Parent Orientation? 

We’ve scheduled our annual Kindergarten Parent Orientation for Wednesday, August 18 at 6pm. At this point, we will plan to hold this event via Zoom, unless district and public health guidelines allow for larger in-person gatherings on school campuses. After this orientation, you’ll hear directly from your child’s kinder teacher to set up their own in-person meet & greet in their classroom before the first day of school.

Kinder Orientation: Wednesday, August 18, 6pm 

Parents of incoming kindergartners are invited to join the kinder teacher team and Principal Hanson for an orientation about what to expect as your child’s Caleb Greenwood journey begins this fall.

What will kinder look like in the fall? 

Our Sac City School Board voted on a resolution to affirm their commitment to return to traditional, in-person instruction for five full days per week when school resumes in the fall. You can find that resolution here. While we are still obligated to follow public health and district safety requirements, this commitment is good news for our children and families and means that we have begun preparing for full-time return in the fall. At Caleb, this means we are planning and preparing for staffing, classes, classrooms, instruction of essential standards, supports and interventions for unfinished learning, enrichment and the full implementation of our IB Primary Years Program.

The kinder day will run from 8am-11:45am daily. 

How do I register my child for kindergarten? 

Kinder registration must be completed through the SCUSD Enrollment Center. 

How can we get to know other Caleb kinder families? 

Mark you calendars for our annual Kinder Family Picnic which till take place at Glenn Hall Park on Wednesday, August 25, 5-6:30pm.

We can’t wait to welcome all of our new Cougars in fall, but if you’ve decided to attend kinder elsewhere, please call our front office at 395-4515 to share this very important information. We continue to have families waiting for spots, so your timely communication regarding your intentions is critical as we plan for next year. 

Take care and we’ll see you in August!
