Then, at midnight on Wednesday, March 16, students will begin to be placed into their requested courses. Any classes that have more requests than seats will be determined by lottery.

Please check schedules for gaps and request changes as necessary. The fee varies per course. See each course description for the specific fee charged.

To help ease any uncertainties, the School District of Kettle Moraine offers a six-week, four and a half hour daily Summer Academy Movin’ On To Kindergarten program. This program is designed only for children who are entering Kindergarten in the fall and will provide your child with an introduction to a structured school setting while stimulating and enhancing knowledge and the developmental process. A daily schedule and weekly calendar is provided to give you an idea of what units we will focus our attention on each week. Through small group and team teaching, your child will have daily opportunities to increase social skills, emotional growth, academic readiness, fine/gross motor coordination, early language skills, and independent work habits. All children will have the opportunity to work in small groups to develop these skills. Progress will be monitored throughout the summer class. However, if any questions or concerns arise, we will be available to discuss them with you. We hope you will allow your child the opportunity to participate in the Summer Academy Movin’ On To Kindergarten program. The Summer Academy Movin’ On To Kindergarten program will meet at the Kettle Moraine High School from June 20 through July 29, with no class on July 4. The course will be offered from 8:00am–12:35pm. The cost of the course is $15 and is limited to district residents. Bus service is available at a cost of $40.00 per child. Please see the transportation page for more information (page 4).
