Starting Kindergarten is an exciting adventure for children and their families. It is a new beginning for you and your child. Children will develop relationships, independence, confidence, and the behaviours and attitudes that will ensure their success in school.

The JYES educators and I will be planning class lists for next year in the coming weeks. There are a variety of factors that we use to determine placement (ie: grade level, special education needs, social considerations, academic strengths and needs, gender etc....). If you would like to share some information that we should consider before placing your child in a class, please send me a written request (paper or electronic) no later than April 30, 2018. Unfortunately, we may not be able to accommodate all parent requests. We will be unable to share this placement with you until the first day of school, due to changing numbers over the summer months, and all placements will be final in September except for very exceptional personal circumstances. Thank you for sharing information with us for our consideration.
