KINDERGARTEN

Teaching Team

Kindergarten is where it all begins at Western! Our kindergarten classrooms are designed to nurture the whole child while building a strong foundation for a lifelong love of learning. We intentionally support each student’s developmental needs as they grow academically, socially, and emotionally. Throughout the year, students develop essential skills in language and literacy, problem-solving, collaboration, and self-confidence, while also exploring the world around them and strengthening their physical well-being. With caring teachers and engaging experiences, our youngest learners learn what it means to be part of a classroom and school community—setting the stage for success in the years ahead.
