EPS elementary enrollment slated; live information show tonight



It’s time for Enid Public Schools’ elementary students to enroll for the 2007-08 school year.

Four-year-old enrollment is scheduled for 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. April 20. Enrollment will be accepted at all 10 elementary sites.

Students must be 4 years old on or before Sept. 1, 2007. Parents can select from a combination of morning or afternoon classes, as room allows.

The classes are Monday through Thursday, with parent participation on Friday several times each month. Parents are responsible for transportation. Daily sign-in and sign-out by an adult is required.

Classes are limited to 20 students and are offered on a first-come, first-served basis. Students must enroll at their home site. Transfers can be requested, and names will be placed on a waiting list, if needed.

“We know that a great education starts with a great beginning,” Amber Graham Fitzgerald, director of school and community relations said. “We are very excited to welcome a new class of 4-year-olds to the district.”

Parents interested in learning more about Enid Public Schools’ early childhood program are encouraged to tune into the district’s live call-in show tonight on PEGASYS, channel 12.

The program will begin at 6:30 p.m. Information about 4-year-old and kindergarten enrollment will be provided. Parents may call 237-0099 with questions during the broadcast.

For information, contact Fitzgerald at 234-5270.

Kindergarten enrollment is scheduled for 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. April 27. Full-day classes will be offered at Adams, Eisenhower, Garfield, Glenwood, Hayes, Hoover, McKinley, Monroe and Taft elementary schools. A combination of half-day and full-day classes will be offered at Coolidge Elemen-tary School.

Parents of kindergartners should enroll their children at their home school. Transfers may be requested. Students must be 5 years old on or before Sept. 1 to enroll. Five-year-old students are required to enroll in kindergarten and are not eligible for the 4-year-old program.

Parents enrolling their children as EPS students for the first time should bring the children’s immunization record, birth certificate and Social Security number.

Elementary students will pre-enroll May 7-11. Packets will be sent home with information that needs to be completed for the upcoming school year. The information should be returned to school by the date specified by the building principal.

Enrollment verification for all early childhood and elementary classes will be Aug. 7 from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. For information, contact the board of education at 234-5270.
