Pickup packets for next year's kindergarten, prekindergarten registration

Enrollment packets for students who will be entering prekindergarten or kindergarten for the 2012-2013 school year will be available for pickup at each elementary campus, during April 30-May 4, 7:30-3:30 p.m. Completed packets may be returned anytime during the week of April 30-May 4 during regular school hours. Packets may also be pick up and/or returned during evening registration/orientation at each campus, listed below. During this time, parents and students also may visit the school and meet some of the administrative staff and teachers.
