Kindergarten

I' am wanting to find a good school for my 5year old son who will be starting kindergarten this year. I want to pick a good school for him. One where I know he will be safe, activities, learn, discipline, a good school that can help him later on in the near future. I want the best for my son and need help finding a good school for him. Does anyone have any suggestions that can help me, I would really appreciate it. Thanks!

Hello- Typically depending on the state, your child would be eligible to go to a public school in the school district you live in. There is open enrollment once a year and that is the time you pick the school you would like your child to go to. I would start with your local community or county services for resource on education and schools. Hope this helps!

Hi jnurse09,

Welcome to GreatSchools!

Thanks for joining Elementary School Parents group. I remember when my son was starting kindergarten, I think we were more nervous than he was about it! My suggestion would be to check out this GreatSchools link:

www.greatschools.net/school-choice/

It's a wonderful tool to help you get on track to finding the school that would meet your needs and expectations.

I also suggest you check out the following groups.

Kindergarten community.greatschools.net/groups/11535

Community Feedback Forum community.greatschools.net/groups/11530

Getting to Know You community.greatschools.net/groups/11532

These are great groups for new members and the Kindergarten group will put you in touch with other parents of kindergartners. Good luck in your search and I hope to see you around the community!
