Kindergarten Information Night at The Avery Coonley School
This once-a-year event is for parents of preschool-age children to learn how The Avery Coonley School is uniquely designed to meet the needs of advanced and gifted learners. Experience examples of our Loose Parts and Think Tank activities — platforms created to help children develop both divergent and convergent thinking skills through intentional exercises — visit classrooms, meet our teachers, and get your questions answered. Whether you have just started your school search or are ready to apply, we invite you to join us for this event. Note: This informational event is intended for adults only and no childcare will be provided.
