In April, Humble ISD’s 30 elementary schools will open their doors for the annual Kindergarten Roundup event.

“Kindergarten is the first of many important steps in every student’s education. It is also a great time to learn to work together and foster friendships,” Humble ISD Assistant Superintendent of Elementary Luci Schulz said.

This event is for families and their soon-to-be kindergarten students for the 2023-2024 school year. A child must be 5 years old on or before September 1, 2023, to qualify for kindergarten. The first day of school for the 2023-2024 school year is Wednesday, August 9.

Kindergarten students at Lakeland Elementary enjoy activities in the Kindergarten forest learning pod.

“At Kindergarten Roundup you can expect to learn a bit about the elementary school schedule and what a typical day in the life of a kindergartener looks like,” Foster Elementary kindergarten teacher Jill Honeycutt said. “You will learn important details about how to pick up your child from school, the best way to communicate with teachers and school staff, lunch schedules, and snack times. You will get the opportunity to tour the kindergarten classrooms to see how things are set up and meet the teachers.”

Dates and times for your child’s Kindergarten Roundup can be found at humbleisd.net/kinderroundup

The Humble ISD Education Foundation is launching a new “Kinder Club” for this event. For a donation of $20 your child will get a Kinder Club shirt with his/her graduation year and a drawstring backpack with educational goodies!

Kindergarten is about developing social and emotional skills through play that will serve our students well their whole lives. It is focused on the developmental needs of our youngest learners. The goal is for our youngest students to build friendships, stay creative and innovative, build skills and love learning.
