EDCI
The Partnership and Durham Public Schools (DPS) have worked together around a Transition to Kindergarten Initiative in Durham County. As part of this initiative, a Transition to Kindergarten Plan was created which identifies several strategies aimed at improving school readiness for children. This plan includes developing communication materials, such as the Steps to School newsletter, for parents and families around transitioning to kindergarten.
For additional information on transitioning to kindergarten in Durham County, please visit our website at www.dpfc.net and the Durham Public Schools kindergarten website at http://kindergarten.dpscalendar.net.
