Vale Elementary to host kindergarten open house April 29

CASHMERE — Families preparing for kindergarten in the 2026–27 school year are invited to get a first look at the classroom during an upcoming open house at Vale Elementary.

The school will host a Kindergarten Open House on April 29 from 6 to 7 p.m. at Vale Elementary, 101 Pioneer Ave., offering incoming students and their families a chance to visit the campus, meet teachers and staff, and become familiar with the learning environment.

The event is designed as a relaxed walkthrough, giving families time to explore the school and ask questions as they prepare for the transition into kindergarten. Staff will also be available to assist with registration, which is now open for the upcoming school year.

Light refreshments will be provided.

Principal Sean McKenna said the evening is intended to help students and families feel comfortable, connected and excited as they begin their first year of elementary school.
