The overarching goal of Ready Set Succeed is to 

improve kindergarten transitions in Flint, with a 

focus on racial equity.


What is Ready Set Succeed?

In the 2023-24 school year, the Flint Center for Educational Excellence 

will launch a new approach to kindergarten transitions in Flint: Ready 

Set Succeed. Ready Set Succeed is a community-wide, relationship based approach to improve preschool to kindergarten transitions for 

Black children and their families in Flint. The initiative includes six 

components strategically created to engage all important adults in a 

scholar’s life—community partners, families, educators, school 

leaders— as well as the scholars themselves, to all be ready for the 

kindergarten transition.

 

Ready Set Succeed includes 6 core components

Each of the core components strategically partners with a different member of the community to support the Kindergarten transition.

1. Culturally Responsive Training and Coaching for teachers and school leaders, focused on addressing racial bias and building culturally responsive classrooms. 

2. Building Bridges meetings to bring Pre-K and kindergarten teachers together around the theme of kindergarten-readiness (ready children, ready schools, and ready families). 

3. Family visits to support school-family partnerships in preparation for the transition into elementary school.

4. Community Conversations to foster community-wide support for the kindergarten transition.

5. Buddy Visits to introduce Pre-K children to elementary schools and their future peers. 

6. Family engagement and advocacy sessions to support parents as they advocate for their children during and after the kindergarten transition.
