Kindergarten
Welcome to Kindergarten in District 196!
Early learning nurtures curiosity, confidence, creativity, and compassion. Through hands-on, engaging experiences, children build the foundation for future learning and independence. Our programs support:
- Social development and cooperation
- Problem-solving and communication
- Growing independence and responsibility
We look forward to welcoming your family and supporting your child’s journey in District 196!
Choosing a School
We are proud to offer learning options:
- Attend your neighborhood school
- Apply to an elementary magnet school
- Open enroll (non-residents)
- Request intradistrict transfer (change schools within district)
Early Childhood Screening
Children are required to complete a free health and developmental screening before entering kindergarten. We encourage this between ages 3 and 4 to allow time for early-learning supports, if needed.
