Kindergarten Registration is Approaching

Kindergarten Registration

Dunlap Grade is excited to welcome a new group of kindergarten students to our school this fall as they begin their journey to become lifelong learners! Kindergarten registration for the 2013-2014 school year will be held on Tuesday, April 16th, between 1-3pm at DGS. Parents are asked to bring a copy of the birth certificate, proof of residency, medical records, including immunization information if available, dental form, and the book rental fee. Registration materials will be distributed at the time of registration. To be eligible for kindergarten for the 2013-2014 school year, children need to be 5 years old by September 1, 2013. If you have neighbors who have kindergarten age students, please inform them of this information. Registration packets for current students will be sent home on May 6th. If you have any questions regarding registration, please contact the office at 309-243-7772.  We look forward to meeting all our new kindergarten families!

Planetary Learning

District Goal #1: Continuously Improve Student Growth and Achievement

Kindergarten has been busy studying planets. The class broke into small groups to research a planet and then drew it for a wall display. Then they picked a planet and wrote a report. We have a class full of future astronomers. The kindergarten students are able to share facts and information regarding all of our planets. If you want to explore more about planets with your student, check out Nasa’s Kid’s Club at http://www.nasa.gov/audience/forkids/kidsclub/flash/index.html
