Kindergarten Entrance

A question came up this week about the entrance age for Kindergarten as of the 11-12 school year due to change in state law.  ACT 41 does not require parents to enroll their 5 year old child in a 5 year old Kindergarten class. There was no change made in the law that provides for compulsory school attendance beginning at age 6

Act 41 does prohibit a school board from enrolling a child in first grade unless the child has completed 5 year old Kindergarten or has received an exemption. For more information please contact me or visit: http://www.dpi.state.wi.us/ec/ec-entr-admiss.html#2
