Why This Matters

• Did you know? Research shows that children who start school with strong foundational skills are more likely to succeed academically and socially.

• Many parents don’t realize how much they can do now to prepare their keiki for kindergarten success.

• Building early habits in literacy, emotional development, and learning skills can set the stage for lifelong achievement.
