WISD Announces Kindergarten Registration

Kindergarten Registration for the 2005-2006 school year will be held on Tuesday, April 12, 2005, from 9:00-11:00 a.m. and 6:00–7:30 p.m.  Parents/Guardians need to bring their child's birth certificate, immunization record, and proof of residency in the WISD to be able to register their child for kindergarten.

Kindergarten students must be five years old by September 1, 2005.  Registration will take place at home attendance zones.  For information on the elementary school that serves a particular address, parents/guardians should call 817/598-2803 or log on to www.weatherfordisd.com and click on "Parents", then click on "Locate the Elementary and Middle School that serves your address."

On Tuesday, April 12, Outreach Health Services of Weatherford will be offering immunizations at Curtis Elementary only.  The charge is $14.85 for one vaccine and $20.00 for more more than one.  This is a very important service as there will be no grace period for vaccines in the 2005-2006 school year.  Current vaccine records will be required for the student to attend the first day of class and no exceptions will be made.

Shelia Carter, WISD Nursing Coordinator states, "The Weatherford ISD has the obligation to meet the immunization laws set by the Texas Department of State Health Services.  They require that all students meet Texas standards to enroll and remain enrolled in public schools. Their guidelines do not allow local flexibility."  She went on to say, "It is our goal that all students will have full access to health care and will benefit from the preventative measures available in the community."

For further information concerning names and locations of immunization clinics, please access the Immunization Clinic link on the district website.  All questions concerning registration may be directed to the Office of Student Services or the home campus location.
