Candy Apple Preschool

CALLING ALL PARENTS WITH KIDDOS GOING INTO UPK & KINDERGARTEN:

Lyons Central School District, in partnership with Seed & Sew, is hosting a one-hour virtual session designed just for families of our youngest learners! This workshop is for families of children heading into Pre-K or Kindergarten and will give you practical, research-backed tools to support their growth, school readiness, and confidence this summer and beyond.

They'll talk about what school readiness really means, how to tune into your child's unique needs, and simple ways to build connection and confidence at home.

You'll walk away with:
●A clearer understanding of what school readiness actually looks like and why it's about more than academics.
●Simple strategies to support your child during the transition to school.
●Practical tools to use this summer to set your child up for a confident, calm start to the school year.

📅 Tuesday, June 9th 🕕 6:00 PM 📍

For 50 years, Candy Apple Preschool has been guided by strong, caring leadership, and today, we’re proud to introduce the two women at the heart of it all.

Carleen Uimonen has been part of Candy Apple since its very beginning, helping build the preschool from the ground up 50 years ago. Her dedication, heart, and commitment to children and families have shaped Candy Apple into the special place it is today, and she continues to lead with that same passion.

Alongside her is Rosemary “Rosey” Kraus, who brings both a parent’s perspective and a deep love for the Candy Apple community. Under Carleen’s guidance, Rosey is preparing to take the reins and carry on the legacy when Carleen retires.

Together, they represent the past, present, and future of Candy Apple Preschool.
