Dear Kindergarten Parents,
We are excited to welcome you and your incoming kindergartener to Westwoods Kindergarten Signing Day on Thursday, August 27, 9 a.m.- 12 p.m.!
On Signing Day, your child will meet and visit with our amazing kindergarten teachers, giving them a chance to get to know your child.
When you arrive at the school, please park in the south parking lot and enter through the south doors into the gym. Look for signs/balloons to show you the way. The first stop is to check in with the administrative assistants, Ms. Kelly and Ms. Dibi - look for the red balloon. While your child completes stations with the teachers, you will be asked to complete a student information form, providing useful information for teachers as they prepare for the school year.
Click this link to see our SignUp schedule: https://signup.com/go/OGMrUfF. Please select the time slot that works best for you.
Below is a list of all documents required to complete enrollment. If you have not submitted any of the following, you can bring them with you to Signing Day. All documents must be turned in by September 4th.

Kindergarten Signing Day is an exciting and busy event for our new students, and we ask that only parents and the kindergarten student attend. Students who were enrolled in the Junior Kindergarten Program for the 25-26 school year are not obligated to attend Signing Day. Ms Trillet feels confident using parent input, assessment data, and daily observations to place her kiddos into appropriate Kindergarten classrooms for the 26-27 school year!
Additionally, because Signing Day data is used to create informed and balanced class lists, students enrolled in the Junior Kindergarten Program for the 26-27 school year are also exempt from Signing Day. These students will be auto-enrolled into Ms. Trillet's JK classroom.
For those families who can not attend Signing Day, please click on this link Kindergarten Info Sheet for the student survey info. We will have a station at the open house for parents to take their students' pictures using the same setup, banner, and props as Signing Day.
If you are still deciding between the Junior Kindergarten and Kindergarten programs for the 26-27 school year, however, we encourage you to please sign your child up for Signing Day on August 27th. Data gained from this visit will support our JK and K teachers in placing your child in the appropriate class for the 26-27 school year.
If you have any questions at all, please contact the school office at 933-7900.
We look forward to seeing you and your child on Thursday!

Reminder that Wednesday, June 10, is a half day and the last day of the school year! ☀️
