Kindergarten Entry Staggered Switcheroo Model & DLI Staggered Entry 2024-2025

What is a Staggered Switcheroo Model?

The Staggered Switcheroo Model is a process during the first few days of school where all non-DLI kindergarten students will spend time with each kindergarten teacher. Students will be assessed on social, emotional, and academic skills. This will give staff a true understanding of each child, their strengths, and their unique needs. This will then allow staff to create rosters that reflect a diverse and balanced classroom. Since we only have 1 DLI kindergarten class, they will not follow the Switcheroo Model, however, they will have a staggered entry so that our DLI teacher and TA have time to teach the students the expectations and routine in a small group, before the whole class arrives on Friday!

What is DLI Staggered Entry?

The DLI Class roster will already be set based on the families who have signed up for their students to participate in the DLI program. The DLI kindergarten class will also have a staggered entry so there will be a small group of students each day to learn the routines and procedures of the class.
