Kindergarten Registration

Kindergarten Registration

Carly Hopcia, Anchor

This month, parents will be going to the Primary School for kindergarten registration to sign up their kids for next fall. Coming up in May, new kindergarten students will be going to the Primary school for Kindergarten Screening. The new students will be tested on their learning for placements for next school year. Each kindergarten teacher gets very excited for kids who are joining the Alden School District. Mrs. Pletscher and Mrs. Scimia explain what the kids will be doing when they come in for screening. Usually the kids will go through stations to test their learning abilities. They will test their writing skills, if they can or can’t tie shoes, counting numbers, and more. The parents will come in first to register the kids. All of the kindergarten teachers are very excited to see what kids will be joining them next year. Mrs. Pletscher and Mrs. Scimia explain that meeting new kids is their favorite part. When the parents and kids come in they also go on a tour of the school and to the kindergarten area to see where they will be within next fall.
