Program Information
Westbrook’s Kindergarten program is available to all families residing within the boundaries of District 57. Children must have reached the age of 5 on or before September 1, 2024, in order to be eligible for kindergarten registration for the 2024-2025 school year. The kindergarten program is a half-day program with a choice of either a morning (AM) or afternoon (PM) session, scheduled from Monday through Friday.
Families will have the opportunity to enter a lottery for enrollment in the morning (AM) program. The lottery will utilize a random number generator to establish the order of placement. Once all available slots for the AM classes are filled, students will be assigned to the afternoon (PM) session. For those students who participated in the lottery but were not selected for the morning program, their randomly assigned number will determine their position on the AM waitlist. If any openings become available in the morning program, we will contact families accordingly.
LOTTERY PARTICIPATION will require pre-enrollment and residency verification to be completed by Friday, February 16th. Any outstanding paperwork from the above-mentioned steps MUST be submitted before February 23rd.
