Dear Turrill Families,
These are some FAQs in case you have some questions regarding the upcoming 2019-2020 school year:
- If my child(ren) currently attend Turrill, do I need to re-apply for the Year-Round program? No. Students already accepted into the Year-Round program and attending Turrill do not have to fill out an application for the upcoming school year. All current Turrill students will be automatically enrolled at Turrill for the next school year. These students actually visit their new teacher and classroom prior to leaving for summer.
- If I have a child(ren) at Turrill right now AND have a new E5 or Kindergarten student coming in, what do I need to do? Families that have students currently enrolled at Turrill with a sibling entering into E5 or Kindergarten for the upcoming school year do not have to fill out an application for the Year-Round program BUT DO NEED TO COMPLETE the Sibling Form and Enrollment Papers available at Kindergarten Roundup. If a family has a child currently at Turrill the sibling entering E5 or Kindergarten will automatically be able to attend Turrill if they are enrolled at Kindergarten Roundup.
- If I do NOT have a child(ren) at Turrill currently but have an E5 or Kindergarten student I would like in the Year-Round program, what do I need to do? New kindergarten students without siblings at Turrill must complete an application for the upcoming school year if they are interested in attending Turrill AND all enrollment forms. Applications for new families and Enrollment forms should be completed during Kindergarten Roundup.
- What should I do if I do NOT have a child(ren) at Turrill right now but have a 1st through 5th grader and would like to apply for admission into the program? For prospective new families with students in first through fifth grade not currently attending Turrill but interested in applying for the upcoming school year should fill out an application and submit it to the Turrill office. New students are admitted based on grade level availability or placed on a waiting list.
- If I have a current 5th grade student at Turrill, do I need to submit an application for the Year-Round program at Rolland Warner? Turrill 5th grade students do not need to submit an application to attend Rolland Warner Year-Round middle school as they are automatically enrolled.
- How do I withdraw my child(ren) from the Year-Round program? Families wishing to withdraw from the year-round program need to complete and submit a withdrawal form. The form can be found online or obtained at the school office.
As we move into March we will be starting to collect information from families in order to start establishing class lists at all grade levels for the upcoming school year.
If you still have questions please don’t hesitate to call the office at 810-667-2438.
