Early Enrollment for Kindergarten open now–Help spread the word!
Kindergarten enrollment for 2020-21 opens online in February. Click the link below to enroll online. You can visit or contact the school office for more information.
Connect to Kindergarten 2020/21
FEBRUARY 11 | 9:00 AM OR 6:00 PM | CHAPMAN AUDITORIUM
Chapman will host two Connect to Kindergarten sessions on February 11. This is a time for parents to learn about Chapman and the Kindergarten program. We will be having a morning session from 9:00 – 10:00 AM and then an evening session at 6:00 PM. Both sessions will be in our auditorium and will conclude with a school tour. Childcare will not be available for these sessions. We will also have a spring event later in the year in which incoming kindergartners will be invited to participate.
Why Enroll Early
Enrolling early helps project class sizes and make staffing decisions that are typically done earlier before the majority of registration is complete, before the start of the school year. This is where we need your help. Help us enroll students early so that we can ensure all Chapman students receive a quality education and have the chance to experience the love of learning. Please help spread the word.
