TK Curriculum Information
The TK pilot team has made the recommendation to move forward with Frogstreet as it’s core curriculum. This recommendation will be presented to the board on May 9th and pending Board approval will be the new TK curriculum in the 24/25 school year.

TK Forms
The TK team shared at our PLC on Wednesday that we have had some parents requesting to skip Kindergarten and move to 1st grade based upon the two year Kindergarten form they were asked to submit. The intent of the form is not to allow students to skip Kindergarten. If you have a parent question related to this form and skipping Kindergarten, please contact Angela and we will talk through this together.
