About This Event

Ready, Set Kindergarten! is our newest Mission Ready initiative! The program, presented by HTC, is for preschool children who will enter kindergarten at Horry County Schools in the coming school year (2027-2028).

During this one hour “Day in Kindergarten” experience, children and their caregivers will:

  • Explore a real kindergarten classroom
  • Take part in play-based learning activities
  • Practice routines like lining up, circle time, and center time
  • Learn simple strategies to get ready for kindergarten at home
  • Tour the school and have a chance to see what your child's day to day will look like
  • Ask questions directly to a school educator who will lead each session

Families will leave with resources, a book, and tools to help their child feel confident and excited about the first day of school. The best part is the entire program and all resources/materials provided are FREE of charge to each family in attendance, thank you to our amazing partners HTC!
