What do parents wish they knew before their child started kindergarten? This event is a chance for you to find out the need-to-know details for the year ahead, take a tour and hear from current parents at your child’s school. 

Brr... it was cold in January! Did you miss our Parent Panel event? Are you new to the district? Or do you just have some lingering questions about the kindergarten experience at your child's school?

Maybe you’re wondering…

• Where will my child enter the building on the first day?
• How can I become a part of the school community? 
• How will my child's teacher let me know what is happening in the classroom?
• What can I do before September to prepare my child for kindergarten?


Our outstanding school principals and kindergarten teachers are excited to answer these questions and more at virtual Kindergarten Q&A events held in March! Be sure to register to receive the Zoom link and submit your questions in advance.

Can't attend? Register for the webinar to submit your question in advance. We'll ask it for you and send a recording of the event!

In May, we again welcome parents to tour the school, meet the principal and classmates, take a ride on the school bus and build excitement for the upcoming school year!

KinderCamp is a free opportunity for students entering kindergarten to help build their confidence about the start of the school year. Held at your child’s elementary school, students will experience the elements of a “typical” kindergarten day and learn what it means to be an Eden Prairie Eagle.

When registering for KinderCamp, please choose one two-day session.
