For children who would benefit from one more year before kindergarten — built around Aledo ISD readiness.
Some families also search for this year as "preparatory preschool" or "kindergarten prep Aledo". It's the same idea: an extra, readiness-focused year built to prepare your child for kindergarten and beyond. Some families search for this year by the name "transitional kindergarten Aledo," or "TK," or "private Pre-K Aledo." They're all describing the same idea: an extra year between preschool and kindergarten, in a private school setting. At Grace, that year has a name — Kinder Bridge — and it's taught inside our private, family-owned preschool, with the same named teachers, the Frog Street curriculum, and the Aledo ISD readiness framework that runs through every Grace classroom.
Kinder Bridge serves children ages 5–6 — the year after Pre-K and before kindergarten. Parents choose it for a mix of reasons, often more than one:
It's not "holding a child back" — it's giving them a running start.
By the end of Kinder Bridge, children typically have the foundation kindergarten teachers ask for: letter and sound recognition, number sense, the ability to follow classroom rhythms, self-regulation, and the social confidence to walk into an Aledo ISD kindergarten and thrive.
Every child is different. Come walk through Grace with Dawn and let's talk through where your child is and what year would set them up best.

Kinder Bridge is a transitional year between preschool and kindergarten for children who would benefit from an extra year to build kindergarten readiness — academically, socially, and emotionally.
Children ages 5–6 (and older-4s who turn 5 in the first couple months of the school year), most commonly families whose child misses the Aledo ISD September 1 kindergarten cutoff — or who would be the very youngest in their kindergarten class. Parents also choose Kinder Bridge for social-emotional maturity, learning pace, and in Aledo sometimes longer-term athletic and leadership readiness through Aledo ISD.
They share the same purpose — an extra, readiness-focused year before kindergarten. Grace's version is called Kinder Bridge and uses the Frog Street curriculum with Aledo ISD–specific preparation.
