WHAT IS A DEVELOPMENTAL KINDERGARTEN PROGRAM?
It is a two year kindergarten program designed to build a solid foundation for success in school. TK provides a bridge for our young five year olds between the flexible, exploration based environment of preschool and the more structured academic setting of kindergarten. It promotes each child’s progress in all areas of development. Much care is given to providing a rich, stimulating environment of active learning where each child develops and practices the physical, social, and emotional skills that naturally accompany a child’s intellectual growth.

Note: All new incoming transitional kindergarten, kindergarten and 1st grade students choosing to opt out of Randall's Spanish Dual Immersion program will automatically be assigned to Rose Elementary, but will still need to complete enrollment at Randall school office.
