Important Dates:
- Nothing at this time. Check back in the summer for registration information!
Things to note:
Full-Day: All of our kindergarten students will enroll in full-day kindergarten. Students in full-day kindergarten will have extended learning experiences that allow for more in-depth exploration. The additional instructional time allows for more individualized groupings for students to master the early learning skills that will lay the foundation for their future success. Full-day students will have additional math, reading, writing, and science instruction.
Anyone who feels that they would prefer a half-day option will need to discuss this with the principal. We encourage all students to do full-day for two weeks before switching to the half-day option. Because of schedules, half-day would be from 9:15 to 11:45.
Meals: School breakfast and lunch will be available for full-day kindergarten students for purchase. You may choose to send a home lunch or purchase a school lunch. If interested, please fill out the applications below to apply for free and reduced lunch.

Schedule: Monday – Friday 9:15 – 3:30. Breakfast 8:45-9:15. Lunch 11:45-12:15.
Supplies: The only school supplies that your child needs is a backpack (please no wheels as they don’t fit our cubbies.) and a spill proof water bottle with their name on it. We will provide pencils, crayons, scissors, glue, etc.
Skyward: Your student will be put into a class after assessments are complete. You will receive an email with instructions on how to log into Skyward. This is where you will be able to see your student’s class.
