Union School District is conducting a survey to determine the number of children eligible to enter kindergarten at the Sligo Elementary School for the 2019–2020 school year.

To enroll in kindergarten, a child must be 5 years of age by July 2, 2019. For a child to enter first grade, he/she must be 6 years of age before the first day of
September.

A Parent Orientation meeting will be held on March 20, 2019 at 6:30 p.m. for parents and guardians at the Sligo Elementary School. The session will be an exchange of information between school and home. Parents will have an opportunity to meet the principal, school nurse, kindergarten teachers, school psychologist, food service director, and transportation director. Parents may also schedule an appointment for the screening process which will occur on Thursday, April 25, 2019 and Friday, April 26, 2019.

Remember, if your son/daughter is now in kindergarten, you need not register him/her for first grade.

All Immunizations must be up to date. If you have any questions or are in need of a survey form, please contact Union School District Enrollment Office at (814)473-3121 ext. 1161.
