IMLAY CITY SCHOOLS AND WESTON ELEMENTARY OFFER BEGINDERGARTEN!
This is for students who are age appropriate for Kindergarten. It is a stepping stone between preschool and kindergarten. It gives students an extra year to grow physically, emotionally, academically, and socially.

Cold Weather is Here!
The cold weather is here to stay. To that end, please ensure your child has warm clothing to wear outside for recess.
Children should have a warm coat, snow pants, boots, hats, and gloves. Also, please be sure to label your child’s personal belongings. It is possible for more than one or even two students to have the same jacket, snow pants, boots, etc. They can get mixed up very easily. By labeling their items this will alleviate the problem. Thank you!
A few reminders...
- School hours are 8:50 AM through 3:45 PM. No early releases between 3:15-3:45 PM unless prior arrangement is made.
- When your child is absent from school, please notify the office at (810) 724-9812.
- Read the Student Handbook on our school website. All students are responsible for following handbook guidelines.
- Please be sure to have an extra set of clothing in your child’s backpack should he/she have an accident. We try to keep extra clothes in the office should your child need them. I
