Griffin-Spalding County School System (GSCS) kindergarten registration for the 2016-17 school year is May 2 – 20, from 8:00 a.m. – 4:00 p.m. (M-F). Kindergarten registration is located at the Parent Service Center, 234 East Taylor Street.
Students enrolling in kindergarten must be five years old by Sept. 1, 2016.
Students currently enrolled in a GSCS pre-kindergarten class do not need to register for kindergarten.
Parents/guardians are asked to bring their future kindergartener to registration to assess their readiness levels prior to beginning school. This consists of asking your child a few questions about basic skills (colors, letters, numbers, etc.). The assessment helps ensure your child is placed in a class that best meets his/her academic needs and strengths.
