Concerns and Tips for Parents with New Kindergarten Students

A good experience will carry forward with the child and help them as they move forward with their education and with their life. The self-esteem and confidence they develop is priceless as they grow and mature into teenagers and adults.  Preparing your child for the opportunity and challenge of learning and working with other students to achieve a common goal is some of the most rewarding experiences they will have as young kids.
