Class Schedules: Current & Pre-Covid

What will KCP classes look like in the Fall of 2021? We don’t know. We do not have all the answers, but we do know one thing for sure. We will be operating in a capacity somewhere between two ends of a spectrum. Let’s call it Where We Are Now and Where We Were Pre-COVID. ​
Where We Are Now
(2020-2021 School Year)
It is a virtual program, with supplementary in-person outdoor learning times. Teachers prepare monthly art supplies for pick-up/drop-offs. These art kits provide many of the projects your student would normally do and experience in class. No student drop-offs during in-person outdoor time.

School Calendar
​First and last day of classes. Classes typically begin the third week of September and end the last week of May.
KCP follows the Lake Washington School District calendar. When they go on vacation, so do we. On half days and conference days for the Lake Washington School District, KCP families will attend class as usual. On the days when the school district has a late start, or is canceled school because of snow, there will be no preschool.
