The information<br />
gathered from kindergarten<br />
registration provides<br />
the administration with the<br />
data required to plan for the<br />
upcoming school year. Registration<br />
numbers are used<br />
to determine class sizes<br />
and the number of required<br />
kindergarten sections. Administrators<br />
also ask parents<br />
to share this registration<br />
information with any<br />
families they know within<br />
our school district who will<br />
have kindergarten age children<br />
and do not receive the<br />
school’s newsletters.<br />
District 157-C staff<br />

with school supply lists<br />
and information on the purchase<br />
of Spirit Wear. The<br />

information about school<br />
physicals, forms and information<br />

A representative will also<br />

questions.<br />

must provide three pieces<br />
of evidence verifying residency:<br />
one primary proof<br />
and two secondary proofs<br />
of residency. Articles that<br />
will be accepted as primary<br />
proof of residency include<br />

children an opportunity to<br />
come into Grand Prairie<br />
for possibly the first time<br />
and hear from the staff and<br />
the teachers. The children<br />
experience activities with<br />
teachers at each event,<br />
while the parents hear pertinent<br />

them prepare for next year.<br />

these programs since staff<br />
will be covering a different<br />
topic each day.<br />
