Please note that children entering Kindergarten in the Fall must be 5 years old by September 1st.

We also offer a Transitional Kindergarten program for children whose 5th birthday falls between September 2nd through December 2nd. ​

When will we be notified about the status of our kindergarten application(s)? 

We will begin processing applications in December. Families whose applications are complete by this time will be asked to sign up for a kindergarten screening. Please keep in mind that the kindergarten program at St. Thomas More School has a decidedly academic approach. If you do not wish to have your child in such a program, preferring a more social/play kindergarten program, you should consider another school’s kindergarten program.
