The Waynesboro Area School District is now in the process of determining kindergarten enrollment for August 2024. Per WASD Board Policy No. 201 children who have reached the age of five (5) before September 1, 2024, are eligible to begin kindergarten in August 2024. To make the pre-registration process easier, we are asking that you complete the survey which can be found on the district website under "Kindergarten Registration 2024-2025 School Year". Once you complete the digital pre-registration questionnaire, your next step will be attending our annual Coming to Kindergarten Orientation. The event will take place on Monday, February 26, 2024 from 6:30 - 7:30 PM at your rising kindergarten student's elementary building. Welcome Class of 2037!

Our Feeding School Kids campaign is in full swing with customers engaging through round up and CHOICE donations online to support the WASD food services. In February, we will continue to fundraise through those avenues, with the addition of two programs with our vendor partners in store. Throughout the month of February, for every bag of our brand Navel Oranges purchased, $0.50 will support WASD district meal programs. Then during the week of February 2-8, for every can of Progresso soup purchased, $2 will support WASD district meal programs.
