Kindergarten registration for the 2024-25 school year will begin on January 19, 2024. Registrations will not be accepted prior to that date. Children must be 5 years old by September 30, 2024 in order to attend kindergarten.
Sycamore offers half-day kindergarten in AM and PM sessions. A tuition-based full-day option is also available at each of our elementary schools. Because of the demand, families who are interested in full-day kindergarten are entered into a lottery. You must have a completed registration as well as submission of the deposit and agreement by February 16, 2024, to be considered for the lottery.
