If you have a child that will be 5 years of age on or before September 15, 2023, please plan to enroll them in kindergarten. If your child is going into 1st through 12th grade, please be sure to enroll now. Plus, we offer a fantastic preschool program! For translation, click the “Translate” link at the top of this page.
