Schools round up, catch up and ramp up for fall enrollment METRO DETROIT — Along with proms and graduation ceremonies, another time-honored school tradition will likely be muddled by COVID-19. The very first tradition, in fact: kindergarten roundup. If it’s been some time since you’ve attended or accompanied your little one to their roundup event, it’s a night typically held in the spring at elementary schools to help families learn what they can expect for their first-time student in the coming school year. Kiddos get the chance to tour classrooms and meet their soon-to-be teachers, so their first day of school in the fall won’t be quite so unfamiliar and fretful.
