Sending a child to kindergarten is an exciting and slightly scary event for both parent and child. Veteran educators from the Fairfield Country Day School, Debbie Sullinger and Elly McKenna, will talk to parents about kindergarten preparedness. They will share their knowledge about what skills children should have when entering kindergarten today and how you can help your child to be ready. This program will take place Tuesday, February 28 at 7 pm at the Main Library, 1080 Old Post Road.
Debbie Sullinger has been at Fairfield Country Day School for 28 years. She has a master's in developmental reading and does all of the reading assessments in the Lower School. Debbie works with pre-K through third grade teachers on all aspects of the curriculum from academics to zoo trips.
