Superintendent Dr. Eric Bicotz announced that William Penn School District’s kindergarten registration will run March 1 through March 31 and urged families to register early to avoid the rush.
A presenter for the district said, “Kindergarten registration starts March 1 and ends March 31,” and listed two in-person registration events: Wednesday, March 18, from 4 to 6 p.m. at the Administration Building, and Thursday, March 26, from 4:30 to 6 p.m. at Penwood Middle School. Dr. Bicotz introduced Dr. Nikkia Williams, executive director of student services, and Danielle White, the district’s registration coordinator, as contacts for further questions.
Why it matters: registering during the district’s posted window helps families secure seats and avoid end‑of‑cycle delays for placements and class assignments. The district said it will continue to share registration details on its website and encouraged families to attend the in-person events for assistance completing forms.
Additional details: the registration window and the two scheduled in-person sessions were presented as the primary opportunities to enroll incoming kindergartners; parents who cannot attend the sessions should consult the district website for alternate options and contacts. The announcement emphasized early registration rather than offering procedural changes or new eligibility rules.
The district did not provide a web link in the announcement; parents were directed to the district calendar for meeting links and registration information. The superintendent closed the segment by thanking staff and families for their attention.
