Early Childhood and Kindergarten TransitionTeams
The Early Childhood Team is comprised of highly experienced professionals including general education and special education teachers, èßäÊÓƵ psychologists, speech language pathologists, and motor therapists.
Enrolling in Kindergarten
If you are working with èßäÊÓƵ to develop an IEP for kindergarten, because your child received preèßäÊÓƵ special education services and has an IFSP, your child will be enrolled automatically in your neighborhood èßäÊÓƵ. You will be able to verify demographic information and upload required verification documents at the end of summer through ParentVUE. If you are granted enrollment into an immersion program or PPS èßäÊÓƵ other than your neighborhood èßäÊÓƵ your èßäÊÓƵ enrollment will reflect that change.

Transition to Kindergarten
The Early Childhood Team supports children and families through transition - the move from Early Childhood Special Education services to Kindergarten. This process happens during the èßäÊÓƵ year before the child attends Kindergarten.
The team reviews the child's eligibility for special education and provides any additional evaluation that may be needed. Families are provided information about the process of transition from preèßäÊÓƵ to èßäÊÓƵ-age services and opportunities for èßäÊÓƵ choice.
The Kindergarten program is provided current information about the student. Successful teaching techniques and materials can be shared with receiving teachers or programs.
