Welcome to Kindergarten Round-Up!
What is Kindergarten Round-Up?
Queensbury Elementary School’s Kindergarten “Round-Up” is
our school’s screening
process for evaluating a child’s readiness for our Kindergarten
program. Children on the Kindergarten Mailing List are
given a 45 minute scheduled appointment where your
child and four other
children
will meet and work
with one of our speech and language teachers, a reading teacher
and 2 or 3 kindergarten
teachers. During this time, parents meet individually with our
kindergarten registrar and
school nurse to share important information.
