Dear Incoming Kindergarten Families,
Welcome to our Tokeneke Family!
We are pleased to announce our Incoming Kindergarten “Meet and Greet” sessions. All registered incoming K students are welcome to attend.
Children will have fun meeting some of our Tokeneke Kindergarten teachers, and have an opportunity to do some activities in the classroom. Meanwhile, parents will meet our Tokeneke School Administrators and PTO leaders, ask questions, and learn more about the start of school. Some of our older students will also provide tours to families!
We will have two sessions on May 1st, 2024. Sessions are organized by last name and are as follows:
Last name begins with A-L
8:45-9:15
Last name begins with M-Z
9:30-10:00
We have created a “Getting to Know You” form. Please take a few moments to complete prior to May 1st. Your perspective is helpful in our placement process. https://forms.gle/52kaUZ66o2m1zRSDA
