Kindergarten 2026-27
Thank you for your interest in attending an information session, as we prepare for the 2026-2027 school year.  Although we welcome all families to Spruce Street, historically we have only been able to accommodate zoned families. With that said, prospective kindergarten families, with children born in 2021, will have an opportunity to learn more about our curriculum, meet key staff members, and see our facility.  
FYI once the form goes live, we will follow "first come, first served."  Each session is capped at 30 participants, adults only, therefore, we are asking that only one parent/adult attend per family. For safety reasons, children (including younger siblings) are not permitted to attend. Families must receive a confirmation in order to attend a session as tickets will be distributed at check-in.
Please do not call the school regarding a confirmation.  We will reach out to families with an email confirmation 1-2 days before the information session is scheduled.
