Beginning with the 2024-2025 school year, parents/guardians who choose to enroll their child in half-day kindergarten will be responsible for providing transportation after their child is dismissed from class at noon.
Half-day kindergarten students can still ride the bus to school in the morning but must be picked up by a parent/guardian, or another individual designated by their parent/guardian after the students are dismissed from class at noon.
At present, there are fewer than 60 total students enrolled in half-day kindergarten district wide. The state will no longer compensate districts for transporting students who attend half-day kindergarten. The district will continue to offer half-day kindergarten only in the morning.
Students who are enrolled in full-day kindergarten will not experience any changes in transportation options provided by the district next year.
All students in grades K-12 will begin the 2024-2025 school year on the same day, Wednesday, Aug. 21, due to a change in state law. This is different from previous years when kindergartners started school one week later than students in grades 1-12. Students enrolled at Central Cove Preschool will start the 2024-2025 school year on Wednesday, Sept. 4.
