Half-Day PreK Begins Monday, September 19
K-12 Begins Tuesday, September 6

 

Yonkers Public Schools will welcome half-day PreK students to their first day of school Monday, September 19, 2011.

A half-day PreK Parent/Child orientation will take place the week of September 12th. PreK Families will receive a letter from their principals detailing a specific, personalized orientation schedule.

The half-day orientation is designed to ease the transition for children and families, who will have the opportunity to visit their classrooms and tour their school, and to meet teachers, administrators and school staff.

The later start date for half-day PreKindergarten youngsters also provides early childhood educators an opportunity for structured professional development.

Students in Kindergarten through Grade 12 begin school Tuesday, September 6th.
