Kindergarten Admission Policies
The policy for admission to kindergarten is as follows:
Acceptance for Kindergarten is determined on the basis of testing for the student's developmental maturity and readiness. Prospective students must be 5 years old prior to December 2 of the coming academic year. By state regulation the school may not have younger children without the proper licensing. All prospective students who will be 5 years old prior to December 2 will be assessed for readiness by the kindergarten teacher.
Should the kindergarten teacher recommend, a more formal developmental test will be requested. Should this formal testing indicate an apparent lack of readiness for our kindergarten, despite meeting the minimum age criterion, the parents and principal shall jointly resolve the issue.
At the principal's discretion, but only if places are available, prospective students who will be 5 years old after the December 1 cut-off may be considered. The principal shall have the final decision regarding acceptance.
In either case, the admissions priorities described elsewhere in the handbook will be strictly enforced. Placement of accepted students in the A.M. or P.M. sessions will consider the needs of the student's family and will be made by lottery and input of the principal.
Uniform regulations and general school policy information will be sent to all students accepted.

FACULTY MEETINGS In order to provide quality CATHOLIC education, we are allowed twenty (20) minimum days per year by the Diocesan School Department. This means that the children will be dismissed at 12:30 p.m. on minimum days. Most of these days are used for teacher inservices.
Please mark your calendars accordingly. This also means that there will be NO lunch period on that day. Please do not send a lunch with your child unless your child will be in our extended care program at lunch time.
