Successful UPK program now enrolling for 2008-09

Fonda-Fultonville Central School District is beginning the process for filling openings in its highly successful Universal Pre-Kindergarten program.

Interested parents must complete and return the UPK application form as soon as possible. All applications received prior to May 2 will be processed immediately. If the number of applications received by that date exceed the available seats, there will be a lottery on Wednesday, May 14 to determine which students who will attend. If fewer applications are received than seats available, all will be admitted, and additional applications will be accepted until we reach our maximum class size of 36 students (two sessions of 18 students each).

2007-08 marked the first year for Fonda's UPK program. Parents, students and staff have all been pleased with the curriculum and the students' progress. Ms. Kristen Wieczenski, a certified pre-kindergarten teacher heads the program with the capable assistance of Ms. Roxanne Goodale, a certified teaching assistant. Additional information regarding the program, hours, expectations, and curricula will be given to the parents of the children who are enrolled in the program as the year progresses.

Please complete the UPK application, and return it to either the Superintendent’s office, or the Elementary School main office no later than May 2, 2008. For more information, please call 853-3332.
