Welcome to Wayland-Cohocton Prekindergarten School!

Dear Wayland-Cohocton Prekindergarten Families: 

We are excited to have your three-year-old or four-year-old students at the Wayland-Cohocton PreK School! We are grateful for the opportunity to continue serving all our PreK students together on the Cohocton campus. Whether your child is returning to us as a PreK 4 student or joining our eagle family for the first time, we are eager to support them in soaring to success as our littlest learners.

In partnership with ProAction HeadStart, we are able to continue offering a full day of programming for all of our PreK 4 classrooms. Our PreK 3 classrooms will also continue to be a full day of learning. Additionally, we are continuing to provide free breakfast and lunch to all of our students. We will continue to offer a snack, but you are welcome to send in one from home with your child to have in the afternoon.

As we enter the fourth year of the program as a Wayland-Cohocton PreK School we want to assure you of our continued commitments:

  • Our commitment to each student’s safety and well-being, as well as academic growth and progress with research based instructional programming

  • Our desire to partner with our families, keeping first what is in the best interest of our students

  • Our focus on the whole child through learning, play, social-emotional skills, fine motor, physical movement, and speech/language development

If your child is a PreK 3 student, please access our PreK Ready Reference Tool for Families which can be found at the following link: PK3 Ready.pdf

If your child is a PreK 4 student, please access our PreK Ready Reference Tool for Families which can be found at the following link: PK4 Ready.pdf

As parents you can help to prepare your child for school with healthy routines, such as:

  • Getting a good night’s sleep and being well rested for an earlier wake-up time

  • Eating healthy meals together as a family

  • Treating others with kindness and respect

It is important that our families become familiar with our PreK Handbook. This handbook includes important information about the 2024-25 school year. 

Please feel free to contact me with any questions throughout the school year.
