Kindergarten at Cambridge-Isanti Schools Kindergarten is an exciting time for all! Our highly-qualified teachers are excited to work with you and your child to ensure an enjoyable and successful school experience. All of our schools and staff share the same comprehensive curriculum that includes current materials, sustaining state-of-the-art technology and creates a respectful, caring and safe environment. Every student that attends kindergarten at Cambridge-Isanti Schools will attend a full day program at no cost to the parents. Our district offers either a traditional or a year round option. As a parent, you decide which option is best suited for your child. All sites will offer a Kindergarten Round Up that will be held in April or May depending on the location. You will receive more information regarding this event in a separate mailing due to arrive in homes in March.

Is your child eligible for kindergarten? If your child will be five years old on or before September 1, 2017, your child is eligible to attend kindergarten during the 2017-2018 academic year. If you have questions, please contact your child’s primary school principal.

School For All Seasons (SFAS) is our year round school option for Grades K-5. Our program builds strong character with all students. Our school has been recognized by the state of MN for promising practices in character education.

Positive character traits are stressed and reinforced with the goal of maintaining a positive school climate for all students. Your primary school of attendance is based on your home address.

SFAS strives to incorporate STEAM topics into all core curriculum, as well as a variety of other areas. STEAM stands for Science, Technology, Environment, Arts and Mathematics. Students have opportunities to expand on a topic of interest during each trimester. The explorations culminate with a themed evening for students and parents. Like the traditional option, there is no cost to send your child to School For All Seasons. The year round schedule consists of three trimesters, twelve weeks in length with three week breaks in between. It also includes a six week summer break. For more information regarding the year round school option, contact the Principal.

Frequently Asked Questions 

I cannot find my child’s birth certificate. Can my child still enroll? Yes - your child may still enroll, but we will need a copy before the first day of school. You may bring your document to the school at your convenience before the start of school. If you need a copy made, the office staff will be happy to assist you.



What should I do if my child has not had their Early Childhood Screening? You should still enroll your child, but you will want to call and make an appointment to have your child screened. To make this free appointment, please call 763-691-6691 or email [email protected] You may also contact Isanti County Public Health or your child’s physician. State law mandates that early childhood screening be completed before starting school.



My child was screened in another district. What do I do? You may have your child's screening emailed or faxed to your child’s primary building or feel free to provide a copy with your enrollment papers.



My child has not had their 5 year old shots. Should I wait to turn in the enrollment papers? No - we would prefer that you turn your enrollment form in as soon as possible, along with the immunizations that your child has had so far. Additional immunizations can be turned in to the school as they are completed. State law mandates that immunizations be completed before starting school.



My child will be waiting another year before going to kindergarten or will not be attending Cambridge-Isanti Schools. Do I need to do anything? Please contact your child’s primary school and we will update your information so that you are taken off the mailing list and don’t receive calls throughout the year.
