The child who is ready for Kindergarten physically, socially, intellectually, and emotionally will be able to cope and learn without undue stress. The principal, teacher, and/or parent may decide to withdraw a child if, in their educated opinion, the kindergarten placement is not in the child’s best interest at this time. Children who have not attended preschool will be admitted conditionally, with a review of progress after four weeks. Students must be five years of age by September 1 to be accepted in Kindergarten.
