new Kindergarten application procedure!
Please note: the Kindergarten admission process has been reviewed and significant changes have been made for 2012-2013, as follows:
1. Kindergarten is becoming part of our programming for gifted learners.
2. Enrollment in Kindergarten, which used to be 'first come, first served' is now going to be based on a screening of students, based on profiles provided by parents and other nominators.
3. Siblings will continue to have the first opportunity for Kindergarten spaces, HOWEVER, the siblings MUST meet the screening criteria described in #2 above.
4. Students who are admitted into the 2012-2013 Kindergarten class will be assessed in March 2013 for entrance into grade one. Enrollment in Westmount's Kindergarten program does not guarantee enrollment in grade one, but Westmount's 2012-2013 Kindergarten students will be given first priority in 2013-2014 placement decisions.
Please note: as with all publicy-funded kindergarten programs in Alberta, the birthday cut-off for 2012-2013 Kindergarten applicants will be February 29, 2008. Children born later than February 29, 2008 will need to wait until subsequent school years to apply for kindergarten.
