All Parents of Children Entering Kindergarten In September

It is that time of year for us to start looking into
our community to see how many children will be entering
our schools in the Fall of 2004. If your child is
going to be five years old by October 15, 2004, then
we want to here from you. You need to register your
child for Kindergarten screening.
The
earlier that we hear from you the faster we can schedule
appointments for you to come and visit. Depending
on where you live in our district, you need to give
us a call at one of the phone numbers listed. Russell
