Kindergarten Information for Parents 2010-2011 School Year

The following is presented as background information to parents with young children who may be attending kindergarten in St. Albert Protestant Schools.

Age Requirement: Five years of age by February 28th, 2011 (birth certificate required as proof of age)

Registration Fee: The Kindergarten fee is payable in early September or as stipulated by each school ($185 for 2009-10).

Start Up! At the beginning of the year, your child will be requested to participate in teacher-determined small group settings. This practice facilitates a gentler introduction to the more formal school setting and promotes greater student-teacher interaction.

Remember, bussing will not be available during this time. (Exact dates will be available at a later date.)

Regular Classes: Regular classes will commence after the small group sessions. The exact start-up date will be available at a later date.

Transportation: Parents should indicate on the kindergarten registration form if transportation is required. Kindergarten transportation is free of charge. Bussing will commence when regular classes begin.

Staff Meetings: Kindergarten children do not attend school on staff meeting days, which fall on the first Wednesday of each month except September.
