Kindergarten registration - All South Lewis Central School District students who turn five years old on or before December 1, 2026, are eligible to begin kindergarten in September 2026. Students currently enrolled in a UPK program do not need to complete enrollment paperwork for kindergarten.

There will be three options for you at UPK:

Per New York State regulations, 18 students can be in each UPK class. Also, a lottery system must be used to select students. When parents register, they will rank the options. Families will be notified in early May of their child's program, based on the lottery outcome. Registrations must be received by April 30 to be part of the lottery. Registrations that come in after that day will be added to the list as they come in.

UPK, Mr. Carvel, and Mrs. Calhoun's class had a Friendsgiving celebration before break! There were dishes to share and smiles all around at this delicious gathering. It was great to see everyone enjoy their friendships together.

Muhammed Ali said, “Champions are made from something they have deep inside them – a desire, a dream, a vision.” He forgot to mention “ice pops.” Just ask these South Lewis athletes, all ages and levels, who keep showing up -- with desires to do better, dreams of running faster, and visions of being champs -- to share the miles during Tuesday night runs and to celebrate their efforts after with icy, refreshing treats. Great job, Falcon runners! You are champions in our book!
