Late-Entry Waiver Information

late entry kindergarten information

The Connecticut General Assembly voted to change the entrance age requirement for Kindergarten beginning in the 2024-2025 school year. Next year, students will have to turn five (5) on or before September 1, 2024 in order to enroll in Kindergarten.

For those students who will not turn five (5) until after September 1, 2024, Windham Public Schools has an appeal process in place for families who wish to have their child enter Kindergarten for the 2024/25 school year.

Families can request a waiver by submitting their request IN WRITING to Liz Bumgardner, Director of Elementary Education at eBumgardner@windham.k12.ct.us and must be submitted no later than Friday, March 15, 2024.
