VWCS sets kindergarten registration

Van Wert City Schools information

The registration of kindergarten children attending Van Wert City Schools for the 2015-2016 school year will be held February 23-27, from 8:30 a.m.-4 p.m.  Registration will take place in the superintendent’s office in the S.F. Goedde Building, 205 W. Crawford St. in Van Wert.  Those coming for registration should enter through the main entrance doors on Crawford Street.

Area residents may begin pre-registration on February 16 by logging on to www.vanwertcougars.net.    Click on the link “kindergarten registration” and complete the necessary forms. Paperwork can be dropped off, mailed, faxed, or emailed beginning February 23 at the S.F. Goedde Building.

Those who want their children to attend kindergarten at Van Wert City Schools, but live outside the district, should plan to register at the Goedde Building as well. Open enrollment spaces can be limited.  Open enrollment forms are available on the school website or can be obtained in the superintendent’s office.

To attend kindergarten, a child must have attained the age of 5 by August 1. No student shall be admitted to first grade who has not successfully completed kindergarten. Kindergarten students will attend school all day, every day.

At the time of registration it will be necessary for parents/guardians to present a birth certificate, child’s immunization record, social security card, and, in the case of divorced parents, a copy of the child custody order.
