2. Governor Holcomb signed a bill this week that changed the date for kindergarten eligibility. As a result, children that will turn 5 on or before September 1, 2019 are now eligible to enroll.
As a result, G-C Schools will use the September 1st cut-off date for this upcoming school year. Complete this form if you have a child that will turn 5 on or before September 1, 2019 and are interested in Kindergarten for the 2020-2021 school year.
