First Steps of Aiken County partnered with Redcliffe Elementary to offer the Countdown to 4K and Countdown to Kindergarten programs this summer. These programs connect rising 4K and kindergarten students with the teachers they will have when school begins, helping prepare our youngest learners for a successful start to the school year.

Mrs. Sabrina worked with students who were accepted into the 4K program, while Mrs. Sellers and Mrs. Blackwell worked with several incoming kindergarten students. Over the course of six weeks, the teachers held six one-on-one sessions with each student, providing opportunities to build important skills, confidence, and relationships.

Throughout the program, students showed tremendous growth and formed connections that will help make their transition into school much smoother and more comfortable.

Today, Mrs. McConnell, our principal, and Mrs. Sullivan from First Steps joined students and families to celebrate the completion of the summer program and officially welcome them to the Redcliffe family. We are excited to watch these students continue to learn and grow in the coming school year!

Happy Fourth from your Redcliffe Family!

Happy 4th of July Independence Day.

Dear New Redcliffe Bear Families,

Welcome to the Redcliffe Bear Family! We are so excited to begin this special journey with your little one.

To help our newest Bears have the very best start to school, we use a staggered start during the first week of kindergarten. This means that not all kindergarten students attend on the same day at the beginning of the week.

A staggered start gives our teachers the opportunity to spend meaningful one-on-one time with each child as they learn classroom routines, build relationships, assess individual strengths and needs, and help every student feel safe and confident in their new environment. It also creates a calmer, less overwhelming experience for our youngest learners as they transition into elementary school.

We know waiting for your child's first full day can be exciting, but this extra time allows us to truly get to know your child so we can provide the best possible start to a successful school year.

At Redcliffe, we believe that every great journey begins with a strong first step. Our staggered start is designed to ensure that each little Bear feels welcomed, loved, and ready to "Learn, Lead, and Excel."

Thank you for trusting us with your precious child. We cannot wait to watch them grow, learn, and shine as a member of our Redcliffe family!

Welcome to the 'Cliffe! We're so glad you're here! 🐻❤️
