Grosse Ile Township Schools offers parents and children multiple options for this most important initial education experience. Currently the following Kindergarten options are available:
- All Day Kindergarten (must be 5 years old by December 1st of the school year)
- Transitional Kindergarten: All Day Kindergarten Program (must turn 5 between September 1st and December 1st of the school year)
All Day Kindergarten
@ Grosse Ile Elementary
The all-day Kindergarten experience is offered at Grosse Ile Elementary. Kindergarten Information Night is generally held in March of the school year. At this time, parents receive registration information.
Transitional Kindergarten Program
@ Grosse Ile Elementary
In addition to the above experiences, we offer an all-day Transitional Kindergarten program. Deciding exactly when to begin a youngster in Kindergarten is a decision that frequently requires insights from both teachers and parents. Transitional Kindergarten is yet another Kindergarten option for Grosse Ile families as they decide what is best for their child.
