Exciting Changes Ahead for Veritas Kindergarten Program

Exciting Changes Ahead for Veritas Kindergarten Program

As the school year winds down, Veritas Preparatory School is already looking ahead to the upcoming year and the exciting opportunities it will bring. In particular, we are thrilled to welcome Ms. Jessica Kelsey as our new Kindergarten instructor.

Ms. Kelsey brings nine years of experience teaching kindergarten and second grade, including five years in public education and three years at Fresno Christian Schools. After moving to the area last year, she joined the Veritas team as a second-grade teacher. Passionate about early childhood education, Ms. Kelsey understands that kindergarten is a pivotal time when children begin to form their opinions about school. She brings a fun, energetic presence to the classroom and loves nurturing the joy and curiosity of young learners.

The kindergarten program at Veritas is truly one of a kind. From the very first day, students enter a highly structured environment with high expectations. They are taught to complete their work “neatly, completely, and to the glory of God.” A strong emphasis is placed on developing reading literacy skills to lay a solid foundation for future academic success. As students progress, they will begin learning cursive and even start studying Latin—making strong reading and writing fundamentals essential.

Though the classroom environment is structured and disciplined, Veritas kindergarteners enjoy regular interaction with students from all grade levels up through eighth grade. Older students serve as “big brothers and sisters,” playing basketball or four-square at recess and participating in collaborative projects such as art activities. These relationships provide valuable mentorship and create a tight-knit, supportive school community.

Enrollment for our Kindergarten class is now open, and spaces are filling quickly. For more information or to schedule a tour, please contact Veritas Preparatory School at (775) 217-0069 or visit our website at www.veritasfallon.org. Give your child a strong foundation for success in a fun and engaging learning environment.

We reached out to the writer/submitter and got this info back...hope it's helpful. PBM: Pharmacy Benefit Managers are pharmacies that are owned by insurance companies. (CVS is one.) They negotiate with drug makers to get reduced pricing for medications, but they historically have not passed along those savings to patients. https://www.ftc.gov/system/files/ftc_gov/pdf/pharmacy-benefit-managers-staff-report.pdf MFN: Most Favored Nation pricing is a policy that means a country agrees to offer the same trade concessions (like tariffs or price reductions) to all member nations of the World Trade Organization (WTO). When applied to pharmaceuticals, it could disrupt global access, deter innovation, and obscure the deeper systemic issues in American health care. https://petrieflom.law.harvard.edu/2025/05/22/the-global-risks-of-americas-most-favored-nation-drug-pricing-policy/Comment publication date: 6/23/25, 7:47 AMComment source: L E T T E R TO THE EDITOR
