We are so excited to welcome you and your little ones to the NBES community. To help you prepare for this big milestone, we would love for you to join us for our Kindergarten Orientation Night. This is a wonderful opportunity to see the school, meet our team, and get a feel for the exciting year ahead.
Evening Schedule
5:00 PM | Dual Language Interest Meeting (Theater) If you are interested in our Dual Language Program, please join us early! Representatives from Participate Learning and Buncombe County Schools will be there to discuss this unique and enriching opportunity for your child. Just a quick reminder that notifications for our Dual Language program will be sent out the week of May 18th. Since the lottery selection process takes a little time, we encourage all families interested in Dual Language to stay for the 6:00 PM general session as well. This ensures you’re fully prepared for the Kindergarten journey, regardless of your child's specific classroom placement!
6:00 PM | General Kindergarten Orientation (Theater) We invite all rising Kindergarten parents to gather in the theater. We’ll share some essential "need-to-knows" for the upcoming year, followed by an open house where you can tour the classrooms and explore your child's new learning environment.
Childcare Information
We want this evening to be as stress-free as possible for you. We will be providing childcare for your rising Kindergarten student in room K02. Your children will be in great hands, as the room will be staffed by our wonderful Kindergarten instructional assistants!
