Wrapping up another preschool year. We are so PROUD of our students and their amazing teachers. The focus is on celebrating growth, creating lasting memories and making a smooth transition into kindergarten. 

Leaving preschool and making the transition to kindergarten is a big event for every child and family. This transition represents a time of learning new things, mastering new skills, developing new friendships and feeling proud to be moving into the “big school.”  

Please add Wednesday, April 22 to your calendar and join us at Ignacio Elementary for our annual Kindergarten Transition from 5:30-7pm. This is a great opportunity to meet the kindergarten team, Principal and Assistant Principal. The staff will give you a tour of the school and answer any questions that you might have.
