Kindergarten complete
All Kindergarten offers were sent out today, April 21. If you applied on April 13 or 14, you should have received an email from Westmount indicating whether you have been offered a space, or a space on the wait list, or if your application was simply too late. If you did not hear from us, contact registrar@westmountcharter.com and someone will contact you early next week (we are now closed for a long weekend).

Kindergarten Info Night, Wednesday, April 13
Kindergarten Info Night is THIS WEDNESDAY, APRIL 13.
Starting at 7:00 PM sharp in Westmount's Main Gym, the Parent Information Night for Westmount Charter School's Kindergarten program is Wednesday, April 13th. Following the time in the gym there will be a brief tour of the Kindergarten classrooms. We will be done by 8:30 PM.
Please make child-care arrangements for your children - the session is designed for parents and it can be quite distracting if there are little ones running around while the presentation is on.
Parking is available in the staff/student lot south of the school. There is also a small amount of on-street parking available but be careful - you WILL be ticketed if you're in a no parking zone or no stopping zone, or incorrectly parked in a restricted parking area.
Application forms will be available ONLINE ONLY starting at 9:00 PM that same evening, April 13. Once you download the form, you will need to fill it in and fax (403.249.3412) or scan and email it (registrar@westmountcharter.com). Along with the form, you also need to include a photocopy of your birth certificate (and if available, immunization records). If your child was not born in Canada, we'll need to receive a copy of his/her immigration records (ideally a Permanent Residency card or Canadian Passport) in addition to the Birth Certificate. Completed applications WITH ALL DOCUMENTATION INCLUDED will be processed in the order they are received - email or fax only, we will not be receiving applications in any other way.
For form download, go to the "apply for kindergarten" link on www.westmountcharter.com . Please be aware that roughly half of our Kindergarten spaces have already been filled by siblings of current Westmount students, so there are VERY few spaces remaining! Applicants will be notified of their status by email by Thursday, April 21st.
