January  2012

Dear Parent/Guardian:

The Fond du Lac School District will again be offering a half-day, 4 year-old-kindergarten (4K) experience next fall. Children who will be 4 years old on or by September 1, 2012, are eligible to attend.  Currently there are classrooms at the following District elementary schools: Chegwin, Pier, Riverside, Rosenow, and Waters. Programs will also be offered at the following community partner sites: Camelot Children’s Center, Christian Parents for Kids, Children’s Choice, ADVOCAP Head Start, Hope Preschool, Kids Connection, Kidz Choice Learning Center, Marian University Early Childhood Center, Mary Linsmeier, Shining Stars Learning Center, Wright Care Kiddie Kampus Daycare and Preschool, and the YMCA.  Your child is eligible to attend 4K at any of these locations for no charge.  See the enclosed brochure for additional information.

This year our childcare center partners are holding Open Houses. This is a wonderful opportunity for you to visit our centers which may assist you in selecting a 4K location. This is a visit only; registration packets will not be available at the centers.  The centers will be open from 5:00-6:30 p.m.  The schedule is as follows:

• Tuesday, January 24th – Children’s Choice, Head Start/both locations, Hope Preschool, Kids Connection, Marian University Early Childhood Center, Wright Care Kiddie Kampus Daycare and Preschool, and the YMCA
• Thursday, January 26th – Camelot Children’s Center, Christian Parents for Kids, Kidz Choice Learning Center, Mary Linsmeier, and Shining Stars Learning Center

We are planning registration for the weeks of February 13th and February 20th.   The daytime parent and child registrations will be held at the five elementary schools which house 4K programs.  The session will run approximately one hour.  You need not attend at your neighborhood school.   PRE-REGISTRATION IS REQUIRED.  Please call 906-6513 to pre-register for the parent and child sessions.  We will fill the sessions on a first call basis.  The schedule is as follows:

Wednesday, February 15            Waters School             9:00 a.m. and 1:30 p.m.

Thursday, February 16            Riverside  School       9:00 a.m. and 1:30 p.m.

Tuesday, February 21            Chegwin School             9:00 a.m. and 1:30 p.m.

For those parents who cannot attend a daytime parent and child registration, we are also holding a parent only evening registration at…

Theisen Middle School – Auditorium

No pre-registration is necessary for this session.

At registration, parents will be given information about the program.  Questions will be answered on the opportunities offered at the different sites, transportation, and out of district open enrollment. You will also have the opportunity to select a childcare or school site.  You will need to bring proof of birth and your child’s social security number to complete the registration paperwork.

If you need further information, please feel free to contact me.

Thank you,
