Ridge School District #18 will conduct free preschool screenings on
Thursday, March 18 and Friday, March 19 at Schneider Elementary School,
309 North John Street, Farmer City, Illinois. The
developmental screening is for children who are 3 or 4 years old at the
time of the screening. Children who turn 5 before September 1, 2010 are
not eligible for the screening. Please allow up to 2 hours for the
screening. We ask you not to bring other children with you since you
will be asked to join us during your child’s appointment. Parents will be asked to complete an information packet and return it to the school a week before the appointment.
Please call the Schneider office 928-2611 to schedule an appointment or ask any questions. Thank you!
Kindergarten Registration and Orientation will be held on Tuesday, April 6 at 7 p.m. in the Schneider School Cafeteria, 309 N. John Street, Farmer City, Illinois. Parents only may attend the orientation session (no children please). Parents will need to bring an official birth certificate and two proofs of residency.
Children must have a birth certificate and up-to-date physical and immunization record before entering school in the fall. These items are required before your child can attend the first day of school.
Special note: Students
enrolled in Blue Ridge Prekindergarten and ECSE programs will have an
opportunity to visit the kindergarten classes later this spring.
Parents of students who are not currently enrolled in one of these
programs may call the office at 309-928-2611 to schedule an appointment
to tour the building with the principal on April 8 at either 9 a.m. or
1:30 p.m.
