Kindergarten Information
WELCOME to kindergarten! Classes throughout Corvallis will be providing your child a program rich in language and early literacy development, social experiences, math, science, physical development, and the arts.
March is "Kindergarten Month" when all families sign up at their neighborhood school.
A community-wide information meeting is set for
Wednesday, March 2
for parents to learn more about how to enroll their
kindergarten student in the Corvallis School District. The
meeting will run from 7 to 8:30 p.m. and takes place in the
Commons area of Linus Pauling Middle School, 1111 NW
Cleveland Avenue
We hope you’ll
attend to learn more about the registration process, the
“Gentle Start” kindergarten schedule in the fall, and how to
help your child prepare to be successful in kindergarten.
