Kindergarten at Sunset Mesa Schools, Albuquerque:
Building the Foundations for Learning
Sunset Mesa offers a full day program for kindergarten. This enriched experience
provides students with a strong foundation in phonics and early literacy. Our
math program uses patterning and hands-on activities to develop strong numeration
skills at an early age. Communication is an important aspect of our partnership
with parents. Each child's progress is reported to parents three times per year.
Parent-Teacher conferences are scheduled at the end of the first and second reporting
periods and an interim mid-report is sent to call attention to any particular
concerns and review progress.
