Kindergarten Information
Kindergarten is an exciting experience and serves as the foundation for a child's future.
If you want your child to attend a school other than the one that is within your attendance area, you will need to apply for Open Enrollment. All Open Enrollment is done online. Open Enrollment applications for new students are accepted in January for the next school year. More Open Enrollment Information.
Getting to know Your kindergartner sign-up
The Litchfield Elementary School District appreciates you taking the time to sign-up and bring your child up to a Getting To Know Your Kindergartner summer session at the end of July. During this session, your child will meet one-on-one with a kindergarten teacher at your child's school campus. The teacher will take some time to get to know your child and gather some academic and social information. This information will be used to help the school appropriately place your child with the teacher that will best meet their needs. Please click on Getting to Know Your Kindergartner Sign-Up to schedule an appointment for your incoming kindergartner. *If you have submitted an Open Enrollment application, please wait until you have received notice of acceptance before signing up for an appointment.*
