Preschool Outreach Program
Free, Fun, and Informative!
Through its Preschool Outreach Program, DASD has partnered with local preschools to help support preschool families as they get ready for the transition into Kindergarten.
The DASD Preschool Outreach Program offers monthly fun activities for those students who will be entering Kindergarten in one of the DASD elementary schools the following school year. In addition, informational flyers are available for the preschoolers' families to learn how to best support their children's kindergarten readiness.
Preschool Outreach Upcoming Events for 2025 - 2026
The DASD Preschool Outreach Group will be holding a series of free events throughout the school year for preschool students who will be attending DASD kindergarten in the upcoming year. All preschoolers are welcome to attend regardless of whether or not the gathering will be in their home elementary school. The goal of these events is to familiarize the children and their families with DASD and to help support the children's kindergarten readiness.
A link to our Informational Flyer including how to RSVP will be posted 2 weeks prior to the event.
