Transitional Kindergarten (TK)
To enroll, children must be 4 years old by September 1st
Transitional Kindergarten (TK) is a bridge between preschool and kindergarten. It gives young learners a head start while providing them with an opportunity to learn and grow in an environment that is tailored to meet their developmental, emotional, academic, and social needs.
St. Charles Borromeo School’s Transitional Kindergarten program offers a creative and nurturing environment in which children feel like part of an extended family. With the caring guidance of our teachers and staff children will grow intellectually, spiritually, socially and emotionally. Our goal is to prepare children by fostering faith, inspiring a love of learning, and encouraging respect for oneself and others.
Enrichment classes include art, computers, library and story time, music, physical education, Spanish and computers. The children use the computer lab daily, accessing MS Word, Super Phonics, ABC Mouse and Dance Math Typing programs.
