School transitions hit hard! No matter what age or transition you are making it can be a big adjustment. Sometimes daycare starts at 6 weeks so that kindergarten adjustment can be rough!
Elementary to Middle another 5/6 years.
Private schoolers you are looking at 12 years of consistency then a jump to high school!
While changes can be exciting, it’s also a time to consider what it means to change up the routine in their “school families”. 180 days a year they have had familiar faces, places & routines.
