<p class="editor-paragraph" dir="ltr"><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;">Welcome to </span><a href="https://www.limestone.on.ca/kindergarten-early-learning" class="editor-link"><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;">Kindergarten in Limestone</span></a><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;">. If your student was born in 2022, now is the time to </span><a href="https://www.limestone.on.ca/registration" class="editor-link"><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;">register your new student</span></a><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;"> to start school this September.</span></p><p class="editor-paragraph" dir="ltr"><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;">Kindergarten is a wonderful new world of learning and growing and a very exciting time for both you and your student. We learn how to read, how to write and we make so many new friends. Our educator teams of a teacher and early childhood educator, help us along the way.

Limestone welcomes all students, promoting and encouraging families to attend their area school, but we understand that it is best interest of some students to attend an out-of-boundary school and that selecting the right educational setting for your new student is a significant decision.</span></p><p class="editor-paragraph" dir="ltr"><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;">Selecting an out-of-boundary school for your new student is a decision influenced by many factors. The school may be closer to a workplace or near a childcare provider that might be more convenient for drop-off and pick-up routines. In accordance with board policy, by default, students will be enrolled in the school designated within their boundary area, based on their home address.</span></p><p class="editor-paragraph" dir="ltr"><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;">We aim to accommodate family preferences, but please note that out-of-boundary placements are not guaranteed, and families will be responsible for organizing transportation to and from out-of-boundary schools.</span></p><p class="editor-paragraph" dir="ltr"><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;">Students may be permitted to attend any school within the board when there is available student space, upon submission and approval of the proper application. The board will not be held responsible for the provision of any transportation for students outside of their regular school boundary area. This applies to both students within Limestone’s geographic boundaries (out-of-boundary), and students who live outside of those boundaries (out-of-district).&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</span></p><p class="editor-paragraph" dir="ltr"><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;">We are committed to supporting you every step of the way. Our dedicated staff are here to assist you throughout this process. If you have any questions or need more information, please contact the school.</span></p><p class="editor-paragraph" dir="ltr"><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;">Let us embark on this exciting educational journey together!</span><br><br><a href="https://limestone.cmdesign.imagineeverything.com/discover_kindergarten" class="editor-link"><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;">Discover Kindergarten in Limestone</span></a><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;"> and learn more about our Kindergarten program, resources, and tips to help your new student prepare for school. &nbsp;</span></p><p class="editor-paragraph"><img src="/images/f05f0e70-9777-4085-8ef0-aac5affa75ab?fingerprint=ppb20260115184001" alt="LDSB Kindergarten Student Registration Website Graphic" width="100%" height="inherit" style="width:100%;height:inherit;display:inline-block"></p>
