Early Childhood
Welcome to the Class of 2021 Kindergarten Registration
We will soon begin the Kindergarten enrollment process for children eligible to enter kindergarten in September 2008. Eligibility for kindergarten in Sudbury means your child must be 5 years of age on or before October 1, 2008. Registration documents will arrive through the mail in January and according to the town census. If your child's address is not found on the Sudbury census, please call the Early Childhood Office at (978)639-3204 to join our mailing list.
We would also like to announce 'Kick Off to Kindergarten', a panel discussion for parents. See this flyer.
Lead Toys
We have all heard the recent concerns about lead paint on toys and other toy safety issues. SPS has taken steps to evaluate all toys used in the early childhood classrooms and, if questionable, removed them from use. We also receive periodic updates from the Consumer Product Safety Commission, National Safety Council and other agencies about at-risk toys and materials, which we act upon immediately.
With the assistance of our early childhood educators, we have recently completed an assessment of toys and classroom materials. To the best of our current knowledge, there are no toys containing lead paint or on an official recall list in any classroom in SPS.
For information about the safety of the toys you may have in your home please visit www.cpsc.gov, www.toyinfo.org, or www.nsc.org/issues/lead.
Information
The School Committee and Administration are very interested in ensuring a quality early educational experience for all students. As part of our commitment to continual improvement, the paper below was presented to the School Committee to help inform discussion and decision about future Early Childhood programming in Sudbury.
