Every year, children enter PreK and kindergarten with varied early education experiences, and the COVID-19 pandemic has heightened the problem. The need to respond to students’ changing situations gives school districts and states an opportunity to reconsider how they are helping children and their families make the transition into kindergarten. Laura Bornfreund and Danielle Ewen suggest that, instead of developing more activities like information nights and school visits, districts and states should develop and implement annual transition plans designed to create alignment among all who support young children in the community, bringing them together to create goals and strategies for helping children move smoothly through early education
