Pettisville Holds Kindergarten Registration

Pettisville Local Schools is pre-registering and testing kindergartners for the coming school year.

Students who will turn 5 years old by Friday, Aug. 1 are eligible. Parents who plan to have children register for next year should call the school and be ready to supply the child's name, birth date, parents' names, address, and phone number.

An appointment for Thursday, April 3 will be scheduled for the child's registration screening process. Parents should allow at least one hour.

A meeting for parents who are not familiar with the registration process is Tuesday, April 1, 7 p.m. in the library.

The meeting will review the screening process and provide parents with information to help children for kindergarten.

Parents who are not sure if they want to send their child to kindergarten this fall, due to a late birthday or other reasons, should call the school and talk with Mr. Waldvogel, elementary principal.

Morning And Afternoon Kindergarten Classes

Each year the morning and afternoon class assignments are based upon where the students live in the district, due to transportation.

Students in the northern part of the district will be assigned to the morning kindergarten; the southern part, to the afternoon.

The exact division between the north and south sections of the district is determined each year according to the number and location of enrolled students.
