Future kindergartners and their parents had a blast at the first of two annual Kickoff to Kindergarten events that are sponsored by the North Carolina College Savings Program (NC 529 Plan). The first event was held June 21st at Marbles Kids Museum in Raleigh; the second is to be held on August 18th from 8AM – 5PM. The free event helped future students learn the ins and outs of navigating their first year of grade school.
The first years of your child’s life are filled with countless milestones: crawling, walking, talking, making friends, learning to count and read. There were first teeth and new words spoken. There were first-time holidays and new traditions begun. Then, you blinked, and now you are weeks away from the next milestone — starting kindergarten!
Preparing for an Educational Milestone
Just in Wake County, nearly 12,000 students are expected to enter schools this year as the class of 2030.
