Please note that the above appointment times are for the maturity screening/testing. During this time, your child will receive a brief speech screening by one of our speech pathologists, so for this reason your child will need an appointment. We will also be reviewing with you your child’s registration paperwork, as well as health history and medical paperwork.

Envelopes containing registration materials will be sent in January to families with known eligible children residing in the district. Any child residing within the Conrad Weiser District who will turn five (5) years old before October 1, 2008 is eligible to register for kindergarten. Families who have children within this age group who have not received registration materials should contact Kelly Grabey at either elementary school office – East: (610) 678-9901 or West: (610) 589-2501, to request registration information.

Parents/guardians are invited to attend a Kindergarten Orientation meeting at 7:00 p.m. on Tuesday April 29th, 2008, at the Conrad Weiser East Elementary School, or at 7:00 p.m. on Monday April 28, 2008, at the Conrad Weiser West Elementary School. During these meetings you will receive information regarding your child’s first year in school.  The teachers will describe the educational program and how parents can prepare their child/children for this big event. Feel free to attend the orientation that is most convenient for you, regardless of which building your child will be attending.  Please keep in mind that the orientation meetings are for parents/guardians only, and we would appreciate not having small children in attendance.
