As the school year approaches, excitement and nerves are in full swing—especially for incoming kindergartners. To make the transition smoother, Kermit R. Booker Elementary has introduced a brilliant new initiative: Kinder Camp!

What is Kinder Camp?

Kinder Camp is all about helping students feel comfortable before their first big day. Principal Cullen Skyles and his team welcomed about 35 incoming kindergartners, guiding them through morning routines like breakfast in the cafeteria and meeting their teachers. This special event was designed to ease anxiety for both kids and parents, offering a sneak peek into daily school life.

The school even color-coded students, making it easy for parents to identify their child’s teacher. This thoughtful touch, along with personalized attention from staff, helps build trust and sets the tone for a smooth start to the year.

A New Tradition

This is Booker Elementary’s first year hosting Kinder Camp, and it was a hit! As one teacher said, “It made everything feel more welcoming, like a home.” It’s clear that this event will become a cherished tradition, creating a strong sense of community from the start.

Going the Extra Mile

In addition to the camp, Booker’s staff made surprise home visits, delivering school swag to incoming kindergartners. This personal touch reflects the school’s commitment to making families feel welcome and supported.

Final Thoughts

Kinder Camp is more than just an introduction to school—it’s about preparing kids emotionally for this big step. By creating a warm, supportive environment, Booker Elementary ensures that both students and parents feel ready for the exciting journey ahead.
