Transition to Kindergarten (TK)

Wenatchee TK programs are provided at no cost to families, are staffed by highly trained, certificated educators, and give students access to all the aspects of the regular kindergarten school day, such as transportation, meals, and specialists (music, PE, art, etc.). Classrooms are designed to meet the unique needs of preschool students and offer high-quality early learning programs with developmentally appropriate rest times, structured interactive playtime, and hands-on activities. 

TK programs serve eligible students of all ability levels who need additional preparation to be successful in Kindergarten as identified through a screening process and who lack access to other early learning group settings.

 

    • Mission View Elementary 
    • Newbery Elementary 
    • Washington Elementary

    TK progams are limited to students that live each school's boundary. Enrollment is limited to 15 students per class.

  • Once you receive confirmation from the school that your child has met the eligibility requirements, you can register your child as a new WSD student.

Castle Rock is an inclusive, community preschool where we offer preschoolers of all ability levels the opportunity to learn together and from one another.

Each class is taught by a certificated early childhood special education teacher who supports an inclusive environment for all students. Students identified with a developmental delay receive specially designed instruction in the general education class and have access to the same content as their peers without special needs.
