Full-Day Kindergarten Overview

Pembroke Public Schools are proud to offer a full-day kindergarten program

Pembroke kindergarten students have benefited from a universal, tuition-free, full-day program for several years now. The transition to full-day kindergarten was a significant milestone, achieved under Superintendent Obey's leadership as part of a long-term vision for the district. As a result, the school district no longer offers a separate half-day kindergarten program. Pembroke is proud to stand alongside the majority of communities across the state that have embraced full-day kindergarten to enhance student learning and achievement.

Nutrition/Health
Kindergarten students will eat in the school cafeteria and have access to the school lunch program. Milk is available for a snack. Each elementary school is staffed by a full-time school nurse.

Transportation
Transportation to and from school is offered to all kindergarten students. A transportation application must be submitted in order to reserve a seat on the bus for your child.
Transportation applications will be available in the online student registration packets available each July prior to the start of the school year.

Orientation
Kindergarten Orientation is held on the first day of the school year. Each elementary school sets the time for orientation for their building. These times will be on the website calendar. Parents and kindergarten students are invited to come and meet teachers and see the classrooms. Students will also have the opportunity to take a quick ride on the school bus to get them comfortable. The entire orientation is about 45 minutes. The first official day for Kindergarten students is the second day of the school year.
