Must-Know Dates For Start Of Strongsville Schools

STRONGSVILLE, OH — The first day of school is rapidly approaching and Patch has compiled some must-know dates for parents and students.

First, let's look at when students will return to classes. Grades 1 through 9 will go back to school August 20. There will also be a kindergarten orientation that day. Students in grades 10 through 12, plus kindergartners, will start on August 21.

The Strongsville Early Learning Preschool will start on Wednesday, August 22, the district said.

Parents of young children will want to make sure they attend their kindergarten screening session. The Strongsville Schools do screenings for each school separately, across four days. Parents should have set an appointment for the screening when they registered their child for kindergarten.

Screenings take about 30 to 45 minutes. During the session, the soon-to-be student will have their vision, hearing, motor skills, and some basic academic skills tested.

Kindergarten screening:

• August 13 — Chapman and Surrarrer Elementary
• August 14 — Kinser Elementary
• August 15 — Muraski Elementary
• August 16 — Whitney Elementary
