Welcome to Kindergarten! Welcome to your child’s first year at Bay Lane Elementary! We are honored to have your child in our classrooms this year! Kindergarten is a wonderful time for students to become independent learners, make great friends, and grow socially, emotionally and of course academically. While all the children will make many amazing academic gains this year, it is important to remember that each child is unique and will therefore develop these skills at a different pace. We are excited to begin our many fun-filled learning adventures together!!
