Family Resources
For resources to support your preschool and kindergarten student review the following resources and videos:
WCSD Early Childhood program website with information about enrollment
Nevada Child Care Resources childcare listing
Child Care Financial Assistance program by the Children’s Cabinet
Literacy resources from the Washoe County Library System
The I’m Ready guide was created to support children moving from preschool to kindergarten. Both parents and preschool teachers can use I’m Ready to share examples of Nevada’s Pre-K standards that children have mastered as well as areas where they might need more support. It is our hope that the guidebook will help parents and preschool teachers work together to support children in developing the skills they need to be ready for kindergarten.
