Junior Kindergarten
Fort Worth Country Day’s junior kindergarten (JK) is a “bridge” program designed for children who will be 5 years old by August 31, have completed FWCD’s kindergarten admission process and need the gift of time to continue to learn and grow for an additional year.
The learning day begins at 8 a.m. and ends at 3:10 p.m. Extended care options are available through the campus-based SOAR program.
Inspiring a passion to learn and discover from the start is the key to developing long-term problem-solving skills, independence and creativity.
