To help families of upcoming kindergarteners get ready to start school, Northfield Public Schools and the Early Childhood Initiative Coalition (ECIC) are holding a special event at each of the three elementary schools next week.
Children and their parents, guardians or daycare provider will take a ride on a school bus, try out the playground, tour the school, and read a book with the school librarian (also called a media specialist). Scheduled bus stops will allow everyone to become familiar with bus rides. Children will take home a book and calendar.
