Overview
Early childhood education in the Allegany County Public Schools offers universal Pre-kindergarten and Kindergarten programs. Pre-kindergarten is offered at 13 elementary schools. Mount Savage School’s Pre-kindergarten population is served regionally at Beall Elementary School or Cash Valley Elementary. Pre-kindergarten classes are half day sessions. Morning and afternoon sessions are available in most locations. Eligible students may attend Head Start during the other half day at a Head Start facility.
Kindergarten classes are mandatory for all students who are five years of age on or before September 1. Kindergarten is a full day program that is offered in each elementary school.
Registration for Pre-kindergarten, Kindergarten and First Grade for the 2008-2009 school year will be held in all elementary schools on March 26 and 27, 2009. Documents required for registration include a birth certificate, social security card, immunizations, and a proof of residency. An acceptable proof of residency is a current utility bill in the parent’s name.
