Our Lady of Mercy - Kindergarten B

We are eager to welcome you to Our Lady of Mercy School!

Kindergarten is the most pivotal year in your child's school carreer. Many experts agree that this is the time of profound intellectual and developmental growth. It is the year they will develop their attitude towards learning.

For many young children, school can be exciting and frightening, exhilirating and exhauasting. They ask questions like: What will my classroom look like? How will I find it? Will my teacher like me?

Parents might have questions such as: Will the the teachers understand my child? Will they give her what she needs? Is the school environment safe and caring?

We hope that the next few days of school will help "move" you into Kindergarten, and ease the transition from home to school.

In class, we will establish routines that foster a sense of community and joy among our children. We will create an environment for them where they can truly feel at home, so that they in turn will feel safe to take risks and grow.

Our children will develop a love of learning. They will develop a sense responsibility and independence, and will be given many opportunities for practice.

We look forward to an exciting year of growth and learning and fun! We hope that you, our parents will be our partners in this very important and crucial year of your child's school life!
