Warsaw Community Schools (WCS) invites families of incoming kindergarten students to attend their annual kindergarten kick-off event for the 2026–27 school year as they prepare to welcome the class of 2039.
Kindergarten kick-off will take place at 6 p.m. April 14 at all WCS elementary schools (Claypool, Eisenhower, Harrison, Jefferson, Lincoln, Leesburg, Madison and Washington). Families are encouraged to arrive by 5:45 p.m., according to a news release from WCS.
During the event, families will learn about key topics including the registration process, school safety protocols, before- and after-school care options and an introduction to programming such as STEM, Leader in Me and dual language immersion (DLI). Families will also have the opportunity to meet school staff, tour the building and visit kindergarten classrooms.
Children must be 5 years old on or before Aug. 1, 2026, to enroll in kindergarten. Families with questions about their elementary district or additional details are encouraged to contact their school office or call 574-371-5098.
Registration for all K–12 families opens March 1 at warsawschools.org/register. Families interested in the DLI program must complete pre-registration and registration by May 29 to participate in the DLI lottery, tentatively scheduled for June 4.
