Webster County families with incoming kindergarten students are encouraged to register and attend this year’s Taste of Kindergarten, a special Move-Up Day event designed to help children and their families get a comfortable, confident start to school.
Hosted by Glade Elementary and Webster Springs Elementary on May 21, 2026, the event offers a welcoming introduction to kindergarten through hands-on activities, school tours, and opportunities to connect with teachers and staff.
Families who attend can expect a full, engaging experience for both students and parents. Children will participate in classroom activities, read-alouds, and play-based learning opportunities, while parents and guardians can attend informative workshops covering school procedures, attendance expectations, and kindergarten readiness.
The event also includes:
*Meet-and-greet opportunities with teachers and staff
*Classroom and school tours
*A registration workshop for families who still need to enroll
*Take-home literacy and numeracy kits to support learning at home
Each school will follow a structured schedule that includes student activities, parent sessions, and a celebration of learning to wrap up the day.
Families who have not yet registered their child for kindergarten—those who did not attend a Webster County Pre-K program—are strongly encouraged to complete registration prior to the event using the QR code or online link located on the attached flyers. Current Webster County Pre-K students do not need to enroll, as their enrollment is already complete.
The Taste of Kindergarten event plays an important role in easing the transition to school, building relationships, and setting students up for success from day one.
For more information or to register, families should refer to the event flyer or contact their local elementary school.
