Dows Lane Welcomes Kindergartners to School
Dows Lane Elementary School welcomed its youngest students and their families during a special event on Aug. 20. Greeted by warm smiles, the incoming kindergartners arrived at school and safely took turns walking up to the front door and then back to their parents.
“It was an incredible day for our youngest learners to meet their teachers and see Dows Lane,” Principal Dr. Andrea Kantor said. “It gave them time to practice arriving at school, being dropped off and walking to the front door before the first day.”
Upon arrival, each kindergartner received a toy bulldog by PTSA vice presidents Karen Arnett, Sarah Harris-Weiss and Brittany Marcus. They were also greeted and escorted by Kantor, Assistant Principal Liza Greenspan and kindergarten teachers. Meanwhile, aides Sandy Cappello and Pat Motush helped with traffic flow and a first Bulldog welcome.
