Press release
The Galion Primary School is excited to announce a new free program, “Getting Ready for Kindergarten,” Friday, May 5. The program will be held in the Primary School from 2:15 to 3:15 p.m.
This program is designed for families with children entering kindergarten during the 2017-2018 school year. Attendees are encouraged to stay for the entirety of the program on May 5.
“Our plan is to discuss what kindergarten children need to know before they come to the first day of school,” said Primary School Principal Cindy Voss. “We will focus our discussion time to help family members, as their child’s teacher at home, prepare their child for the new full day kindergarten curriculum.”
By attending the session, families will learn important information that will be very valuable to the success of their child reading at grade level by 3rd grade.
“To help our new students reach their maximum potential for success, we need families to support their child at home before starting kindergarten in August,” said Superintendent Jim Grubbs. “This requires that we begin the conversation with families so their child is prepared for their first day of kindergarten.”
Families wishing to attend the session can reserve their seat by calling the Primary School office at 419-468-4010. Those with questions can contact Primary School Principal Cindy Voss at voss.cindy@galionschools.org.
