SPENCER COMMUNITY SCHOOLS

25-26 KinderKids and Kindergarten Registration

Online Registration and Open House

Johnson Elementary

Welcome to Spencer Schools!

We are looking forward to meeting the 2025-2026 KinderKids and Kindergarten students! It is important that we have the names of children who will begin elementary school in the fall. To be eligible for KinderKids or Kindergarten, a child must be five (5) years old on or before September 15. All of our Preschool, KinderKids, and Kindergarten students attend Johnson Elementary.

Spencer Schools provide an optional Kindergarten program called KinderKids. Parents who feel their child would benefit from an extra year of Kindergarten have KinderKids as an option. This program is designed specifically for young school-age children turning five after March 1 and before September 15. All ”young” five-year-olds are welcome and will be accepted into the program. Additional information will be provided on the March 18th open house. At the open house you will see the teachers and will be able to ask questions about kindergarten or KinderKids.

If you would like more detailed information about anything relating to KinderKids, Kindergarten or Johnson School, please feel free to call Johnson Elementary Secretary or Principal Melissa K. McGuire at (712) 262-2710. You can also email Principal McGuire at mmcguire@spencerschools.org. Open houses will be held on Wednesday, February 26th and Tuesday, March 25th at 6:00-7:00pm. You only need to attend one session.

  • Current Spencer Schools preschool and KinderKids students do not need to fill out the online registration, but are encouraged to still attend the open house.

  • All families will be asked to review and update their information during the July/August Annual Review of Information period when all other students in our district also register.
