Count Down
To Kindergarten

Expectations of children in kindergarten are changing. What can parents do to help their children prepare to succeed?

Count Down to Kindergarten Calendars

The calendars are distributed throughout Elkhart County and provide parents with important school readiness information which:

  • Focuses on spending special time with their children
  • Gives children a foundation for experiences they will have in kindergarten
  • Suggests activities parents and children can to together at home and in the community
  • Uses material found in the home and that costs little or no money
  • Is based on the Indiana Department of Education Standards for Pre-Kindergarten

Following the school year from September through August, each month concentrates on a specific domain of early learning, important in building the foundation for school success.
