Cranford Public Schools Full Day Kindergarten
We are excited to announce that the Cranford Board of Education will continue to hold two tuition-based full-day kindergartens for the 2020-2021 school year, pending sufficient enrollment. In anticipation of high interest in the program, your child’s participation will be based on a lottery.
Children who will be five years old by October 1, 2020, and are Cranford residents are eligible for the full-day kindergarten program. The application can also be downloaded from our website at www.cranfordschools.org (click on the “For Parents” tab or under “Latest News”). Your application must be submitted to the Superintendent’s Office by 4:00 p.m. on Tuesday, November 26, 2019. Applications submitted after November 26, 2019, will be placed on a waiting list.
Names are chosen through the use of a random number generator. You will be notified via email after December 2, 2019, if you have been selected or placed on a waitlist. Applicants should be aware there is a tuition charge of $735 per month.
For additional information or if you have any questions, you may call the Office of the Superintendent at (908) 709-6202.
