What
is Countdown to Kindergarten?
Countdown
to Kindergarten supports families and children
with the transition into Kindergarten in the Berkeley,
Charleston & Dorchester County public school
system. As we celebrate your child’s first step
into school education, we will highlight the year
before kindergarten with opportunities to connect
with schools and helpful community resources.
Countdown
to Kindergarten is a partnership of non-profit
organizations, local businesses and community
leaders. Our goal is twofold: to help families
prepare their little ones for school learning,
and to link families to schools from the very
beginning – Kindergarten!
Countdown
to Kindergarten provides information, resources
and fun opportunities to prepare children for
Kindergarten. Let us:
•
Help you and your child through the school registration
process
• Prepare your child for classroom learning
• Connect you with your child’s school and community
support
