This is a very special year in the life of your child. Our kindergarten philosophy is to provide an environment where children feel safe to explore a variety of learning experiences. Children who feel comfortable and confident enjoy learning and develop positive self-images, which are essential to the learning process.

Each summer, Ritenour hosts Kindergarten Readiness Week before the start of the school year. Students must be enrolled in the district to attend the free Kindergarten Readiness program. Parents can pick a morning session (8:30 to 11:30 a.m.) or afternoon session (12:30 to 3:30 p.m.) when they register based on their child’s preschool experience. Students must be 5 years old on or before July 31 to register for kindergarten. The weeklong program will introduce students to entry-level kindergarten skills and ease the transition to school. Other benefits include interacting with future classmates and teachers and allowing them to become familiar with their new school.
