Kindergarten Registration for Big Lake, Clear Lake, Lyman, and Samish is on April 24 from 5–7 p.m. If your child turns 5 by August 31, 2025, make sure to attend! If you missed our recent event at Evergreen, Central, and Mary Purcell Elementary, please take a moment to visit your child's neighborhood school before the school year ends on June 13 to complete the registration packet. Registering is essential—it gives us the accurate student numbers we need to determine the right number of teachers for our incoming kindergarten class. Without these numbers, planning staffing levels becomes challenging, which can impact your child's learning experience. Thank you for helping us ensure every child gets the attention they deserve! 📅 #KindergartenRegistration
