Dear Parents/Guardians:
We will be having our kindergarten screenings for the 2021-2022 school year on Wednesday, March 31 and Thursday, April 1, 2021. They will be held at Gallatin County Elementary school in our Kindergarten and Pre-K classrooms. Current kindergarten and pre-k students will not be in attendance on these two days.
Parents will need to park at West end of the parking lot and enter through the end doors by the playground. Masks are required at all times, and we will check temperatures at the door upon arrival.
Appointments are necessary so please call Ms. Tami in the elementary office as soon as possible at (618) 272-3821 ext 1308.
You will need to bring a certified copy of your child’s birth certificate, their social security card, an immunization record, and any dental records your child may have had. And yes, you need to bring your child too! Thank you in advance and we are excited to have your child here with us!
The GEC Tournament kicks off TONIGHT!

The Gallatin County school is conducting Child Find/Preschool Screenings for birth to 5 year old children not yet enrolled in public schools and who will not be kindergarten eligible in the fall. The screening checks each child's progress in hearing, vision, speech, language, and coordination skills. This will give parents a better idea of how their child is progressing at this very young age before he/she begins school. This screening program is free and parents will receive immediate feedback on how their child is developing. Head Start personnel may also be present to explain their program and services.
The screening will be held at the school on Thursday, March 4th and Friday, March 5th. Please call the office as soon as possible to set up an appointment as time slots will fill up quickly. The screening will take approximately 30 minutes and you will need to bring an official copy of your child's birth certificate with you to your appointment. Please call the office at (618) 272-3821 ext. 1308 and I will be happy to get you set up.
