Survey to Decide Half-Day Kindergarten Options

The Kirkwood School District is asking for feedback from parents to decide how many classrooms of half-day kindergarten will be offered next year and at what schools.

The is trying to determine if there is enough interest from parents to establish morning half-day kindergarten programs at North Glendale and/or Westchester elementary schools for the 2012-2013 school year.

Enrollment numbers at this time are not enough to establish a program at any one elementary school. Enrollment numbers are:

  • : 4
  • : 5
  • : 6
  • : 4
  • : 12

The district has sent a letter to parents who expressed interest in their child attending half-day kindergarten next school year.

Parents are asked to return letters to the district by April 27. The district will confirm placement of students by June 1.
