Pre-K, K registration April 15-18
Pre-K children may register on April 15 from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m., and April 16 from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. Children entering kindergarten may register April 17 from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m., and April 18 from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m.
Registration is conducted at one location so all school system personnel resources can come together to screen children for any problems that might hinder their progress in school. The screening is not an intelligence or achievement test. It is simply a way to determine problems such as hearing, speech or vision impairments, or underdeveloped physical or learning skills. Tennessee Department of Education policies require all children to be screened before entering kindergarten.
The registration process will take about one hour and parents are asked to stay with their child throughout the registration.
Parents are asked to bring the following records with them when they bring their child to registration and screening.
‘ Birth certificate
‘ Immunization records
‘ Social Security number
‘ Record of medical examination by a physician
‘ Insurance card
‘ Proof of address
For pre-K students:
‘ Proof of income
‘ Proof of address
Children who will be 5-years-old by Sept. 30 are eligible to attend kindergarten in the 2008-09 school year. Children who will be 4-years-old by Sept. 30 may apply for Warren County Schools Pre-K.
All students must complete one year of state-approved kindergarten before they enter first grade in Tennessee.
For convenience, appointments can be made for registration. If your child will attend Centertown, Dibrell, Morrison, Eastside, Hickory Creek, Bobby Ray, Irving College, or West Elementary, call the school your child will attend, during regular school hours, for an appointment.
