PreK Inclusion

Our TK program is designed to bridge the preschool learning environment with that of the traditional kindergarten classroom. It is taught by multiple subject credentialed teachers who blend preschool and kindergarten instructional practices in order to meet the individual needs of each child. The instructional day is from 8:40 AM to 2:55 PM. Out of School Time (OST) Care is available at other school sites. Currently our school site does not have an OST program for our TK students.

Our Vision:

At Bessie we are antiracist educators who are committed to providing each and every students with a balance of meaningfully rigorous social-emotional and academic learning experiences so that they leave Bessie Pk-8 high school, college and career ready.

Our Priorities:

We are driven by our 3 Ls:

1. Linked through Love
2. Literacy for Liberation
3. Lifelong Learning

Our Ls inform how we approach instruction, professional development and community partnerships.
