Total Child’s Junior Kindergarten program provides older 4-year-olds (who turn 5 by December 31), as well as 5-year-olds who need a little extra time, an intentional year of growth, learning, independence, and confidence before kindergarten.
Junior Kindergarten may be right for your child if:
*They are socially or emotionally not quite ready for kindergarten
*They would benefit from another year of preschool
*They need more time to develop independence
*They’re academically curious but still developing foundational skills
OR: They turn 5 before December 31st and miss the September 1st cutoff for kindergarten
Whether you call it Transitional Kindergarten or TK, Junior Kindergarten or JK, or a capstone year, Total Child’s program offers a vibrant, well-rounded curriculum designed to support the academic, social, and emotional growth of young learners as they embark on their elementary school journey. Whether you want to delay kindergarten or enjoy the advantages of a small class for your 5- or older 4-year-old, our program is designed to move at the just-right developmental pace for your child.
If your child would benefit from delaying kindergarten or redshirting and having a capstone year of preschool, our program is designed to give them everything they need to be ready for kindergarten and beyond. The gift of an extra year or bridge year means your five-year-old has a chance to be in the right class for them and gain a lifetime of confidence as a learner.
