Children who have turned five years of age before August 1, 2024, are eligible for kindergarten for the 2024-25 school year. Families are encouraged to view the Attendance area boundary map linked here, or call the District office at 816-858-5420 for confirmation of attendance area.

If your family has an incoming kindergartner, please complete the following form. We will then send you additional information about enrollment and Kindergarten Kickoffs. Kindergarten Kickoffs will be hosted in each elementary on Monday, April 22.

2024 Kindergarten Information Form

We believe that birthdays are an important time in a child’s life, and Compass students will receive a Birthday Book in celebration of their special day. However, for several reasons including increased food allergies, preservation of the instructional day, and student equality, students are not allowed to bring treats from home or a store or have flowers/balloons or other items delivered to the classroom for birthdays, going-away parties, or other personal events. If a student receives a delivery at school, the student will be notified to come to the office to view the item. Parents will be responsible for transporting the item home. Birthday party invitations may only be distributed if invitations are given to every student in the class.

I wanted to share with you the Annual Father Daughter Dance information! The signup is below, along with the flier that has the QR code on it.

We will be celebrating our Friendship Parties on Tuesday, February 14th at Compass Elementary. On February 14th only, we are allowing students to bring in valentines and nut-free, individually-wrapped treats to distribute to their classmates as well as decorative boxes or bags (if they so choose).

PTA is also providing a snack for our students to enjoy while they distribute special treats! Thanks PTA! If you have any questions about this day, please feel free to let our PTA know. Thank you!
