KINDERGARTEN ENROLLMENT OPENS ON FEBRUARY 1st

Welcome to our newest Exeter Eagles--the Class of 2038! Throughout the next few months, we're excited to help you and your child prepare for the start of kindergarten. Once you've registered your child, please come back every month to learn more about what you need to know to prepare your family and your child for kindergarten in the fall, meet our kindergarten teachers, and more!

SAVE THE DATE: Enrolled students and their families will be invited to orientation in June on:

  • Jacksonwald: Tuesday, June 10th
  • Owatin Creek: Wednesday, June 11th
  • Lorane: Thursday, June 12th

Once you have enrolled, please look for more information and an invitation to select a time for kindergarten orientation via ParentSquare in May. Please note that you are able to enroll your student now even if he/she has not completed all of his/her exams or vaccines. If you have questions at anytime, please do not hesitate to contact your child's school, or call our central administration at 610-779-0700.

Thank you!

P.S. Please register early! Our registration portal will close from June 17th to July 15th for updates.

TIPS FOR THE MONTH:

  • Start practicing how to put on and take off a backpack with your child. Show your child how to use the zippers and load and unload his/her backpack.
  • Teach your child how to carry a tray with pretend food. Teach your child how to open common lunch containers, such as ziplock bags, juice boxes, milk boxes, fruit pouches, etc. We have friendly cafeteria aides who help students open these items, but you may want to avoid packing certain items if you feel your child will be frustrated waiting for adult help. 
  • Start teaching your child how to use the bathroom independently. Show him/her how to wash and dry his/her hands thoroughly. Make sure your child is familiar with urinals and toilet stalls and how to use them. 
  • Practice taking turns and sharing. If you play games, allow your child to lose occasionally so it's not a new concept when he/she comes to school.
