Any child who will turn five years of age on or before October 1, 2010 is eligible for kindergarten admission in September, 2010. First grade registration will also take place for children coming from private kindergartens for September 2009. Please note specific dates and times.
Registration for September kindergarten will be held on the following days at the district’s four elementary schools; E. T. Hamilton, Kresson, Osage and Signal Hill:

Each registration will run from 9:30 to 11 a.m. and 1 to 3 p.m. If these times conflict with parents’ schedules, they should contact the school to make other arrangements. Registration packets may be picked up in the school offices prior to registering.
