Abstract	With the ongoing changes in education and the changing demographics of students in schools, the topic of school readiness is imperative. When children enter elementary school behind academically and socially, they are not prepared to be successful learners in kindergarten. Because school readiness is an indicator of school success, it is important to identify kindergarten teachers' views of readiness in their students. The researcher conducted a qualitative study with a narrative approach using a series of semi-structured interviews. The findings of this study provided information for teachers, administration and the district regarding the importance of school readiness and the skills needed when students enter kindergarten. The teachers' perceptions and beliefs informed the district about developing professional development and learning, the construction of a school readiness checklist, and the possibility of early learning programs and information for families to emphasize the importance of school readiness in children who will enter kindergarten.
