Kindergarten Registration Information
The Sumner School District offers full-time and part-time kindergarten classes. Part-time students attend school all day on Mondays, Tuesdays and alternating Wednesdays (red kindergarten) OR all day on Thursdays, Fridays and alternating Wednesdays (blue kindergarten).
Some elementary schools offer a tuition-based, full-time program on a space available basis. Full-time kindergarten students attend school every day and have the same school calendar as students in grades 1-5. Students enrolled in full-time kindergarten receive extra instruction time to learn basic skills for first grade.

Full Pay Monthly Tuition: $325
All children enrolling for kindergarten for the coming school year must be five years old by August 31, prior to the start of school. When registering a child for school, families should bring:
- Proof of child’s birth date (birth or hospital certificate, passport);
- Immunization information and child’s health history; and
- Names and phone numbers of parents, physician, and an emergency contact.
Families should contact their neighborhood school for registration information, or download a packet from the District Web site. Completed registration forms should be returned to the neighborhood school.

From the Principal's Desk
Dear Crestwood Families:
I wish you all a sunny and refreshing spring break. The students have certainly earned one. I am proud of their growth and commitment to learning as well as how they care about others. Our students have raised over $2,000.00 for Pennies for Patients and are also contributing to the Bonney Lake Food Bank Canned Food drive through the end of this week (April 6). Thank you to everyone who contributed. Big or small, it does make a difference in our community.
As conferences wrap up, please keep in mind that we are still available when you need us. We have a variety of professionals here to support children and families. Let us know if we can help in any way.
Students in grades 3-5 will begin taking the Washington State Measure of Student Progress (MSP) test in early May. Our goal is that each student performs his or her personal best on this test. The testing schedule is in this newsletter. Please make plans now to schedule medical and dental appointments, etc. on days that do not interfere with testing. Research shows that students generally perform better when taking tests with their classmates rather than in make-up time. Also, if a test has begun, students cannot enter the classroom late and take the test. So make sure students are at school on time. Thank you for making this an important time for your child to show what they know!
I want to thank our PTA for sponsoring a great event last week. The Cedar and Salmon 2 day workshop and Potlatch was an event to remember. Thank you also to all the classroom volunteers that assisted. We could not have done it without you! A special thanks to Lyn Hughes, 3rd grade teacher, who coordinated this event.
April is full of great events at Crestwood. Please mark your calendar for our PTA Art Walk and Auction on April 20, from 6-8 p.m. in our gym. Each classroom will have art on display as well as one class project entered in the auction. Classrooms will also have themed class baskets available to bid on and room parents and teachers may be asking you for a donation! We appreciate our PTA Art Docent Volunteers that spend time with our students to help them enjoy and appreciate art. (Joshua and Nicole Graham, Deborah Moore, Adrienne Stone, Andrea Hogan, LaDona Hein, Natalie Barnes, Becky Harrington, Monica Hurley, Shane and Amiee Aukschun, Christine Jaeger, Susie Tritt, Nancy Manning, Gwendolyn Fullerton, Pam Harris, Viola Barry, Kat Beringer, Marta Cappa, Jennifer Stock, Birgit Anderson and Linda Thompson). This will be a beautiful night to look at many great works of Crestwood artists. Don't miss it!
Thanks for your continued support,
Kay Gallo, Principal
