2009 Summer Programs

SNEAK PEEK

For students entering kindergarten this fall!

This week-long program gives our youngest students an opportunity to learn about going to school and being in a district kindergarten room. Children attend daily morning sessions and experience fun activities that will help them transition into kindergarten. Sneak Peek is offered at five elementary schools during the month of July. WDMCSD families will have first priority.
