Hamilton's Kindergarten Registration Ends Soon

SUSSEX, WI -- Kindergarten registration for children who will attend the Hamilton School District in the 2017-18 school year will ends Jan. 26 - and district officials are holding extended registration hours to help out busy parents.

On Wednesday, district elementary schools have extended hours until 6 or 6:30 p.m. for parents who work during the day. The district continues to register students after Wednesday, but encourages parents to register their children sooner rather than later in order to help the district plan for next year.

Several kindergarten options exist for 4- and 5-year- olds. An optional half-day program for 4-year-olds is available to children who turn four on or before Sept. 1, 2017.

The district offers parents the option of choosing full- or half-day programming for children who will be five on or before Sept. 1, 2017.

Families whose children are currently enrolled in the Willow Springs 4K program are already registered in the district and do not need to register again.

Students who are new to the district must be registered online. New families should go to the district website at www.hamilton.k12.wi.us and choose the “New to district” button. Families with other children already enrolled in the district may log into their Infinite Campus parent portal and click on “2017-18 New Student Registration.” Computers will be available at the schools during registration hours for families who do not have Internet access.

After online registration, parents with kindergartners who will be new to the district – including families who have other children already enrolled in the district – complete the registration process by bringing the child's original birth certificate, immunization record and proof of residency to the school where the child will attend in the 2017-18 school year. The 4K program is offered at Willow Springs Learning Center and the K5 program is at each of the neighborhood elementary schools in the district.
