White Bear Lake Kindergarten Enrollment

[dara1012]

I just wanted to put out there that Kindergarten registration/enrollment for next school year (Sept 2013) in the White Bear Lake district is next Thursday January 17th from 5:30p-7p.

I never got any registration information from the school district so wanted to make sure if there were others whose kids will go to school in the WBL district next year that they knew about this.

I found out from another parent at preschool pick up today that it was Kindergarten tour night and registration is next Thursday. I am not happy with the district at all, b/c I would have totally missed it if I hadn't seen this mom at pick up today. At the tour tonight 4 other families said they didn't get packets either. I have consistently gotten info from the school district since DS was born but not for this. The principal apologized, and said to call the school tomorrow to make sure we are "on the list". I even checked the website 2 weeks ago and it said "a packet will be mailed in January to all families who have children entering Kindergarten in 2013" so I didn't worry about it. Anyway vent over....just want to make sure that people don't miss out!

Also - if you live in Minneapolis and you don't get into any of your choices they do NOT notify you. You just get no letter. So if you don't know others who are all getting letters with their assignments you have no idea, but you are supposed to call to discuss your options.
