Frequently Asked Questions about Kindergarten
What time are classes?
Kindergarten runs on the district’s elementary schedule, which is from 8:30 a.m. – 3:10 p.m.
Can my child start school if his/her immunization records are not turned in?
No. In accordance with Minnesota State law, all required immunizations must be completed by the
first day of school. Parents may get a legal exemption for medical reasons or conscientiously held
beliefs. For more information, call your doctor/clinic.
Where can I get low-cost immunizations?
Low-cost immunizations are available through the Dakota County Public Health program. The
suggested cost for each vaccination is $14, but no one who qualifies for vaccinations will be turned
away if they are unable to pay the cost. Please call Dakota County Public Health at 952-891-7999 for
more information.
What do I have to do if my child needs to take medication at school?
Any student taking medication at school must have written parent and physician permission and the
medication must be in a pharmacy-labeled container. Over-the-counter medication must be in the
original container. Medication forms can be obtained from any school health office or on the district
website at www.isd199.org/departments/health_services/medication.
What if I cannot locate my child’s birth certificate?
County offices can provide a copy of your child’s birth certificate for a fee. Additionally, baptismal
certificates can also be presented as verification of birth date and full legal name.
What is School-Age Care (Kids’ Choice)?
School-Age Care is a fee-based childcare service available before school from 6:30–8:30 a.m. and after
school from 3–6 p.m. For more information on availability and rates, please contact the Extended Day
office at 651-306-7502.

How do I find out about busing information?
Busing information will be printed in the August issue of the 199 Reporter. It will include approximate
times for pick up and the location of the bus stop. It will also be published on the district website at
www.isd199.org/departments/transportation.
What if my child goes to a daycare?
There is a line provided on the enrollment form for a daycare address. If the student will have different
pick-up and drop-off addresses (takes one bus to school and a different bus home), that information
should be completed on the transportation form. Additionally, please complete the verification of
daycare enrollment form.
Does someone help my child to and from the bus?
For the first few weeks of school, the kindergarten teachers wait at the doors for the students when they
get off the bus. Additionally, they are walked out to their buses after school. Badges are also provided
for your child to wear every day for the first few weeks of school. A student’s name, address, day care
address (if applicable), bus route, school, parent’s name and home phone number are listed on the
badges.
Does my child need an Early Childhood screening to start kindergarten?
Yes. Minnesota State law requires that all children be screened before they start kindergarten.
Screenings may be scheduled at 3203 68th St. E., Inver Grove Heights, MN 55076. Screenings are free
and take about an hour. Please call 651-306-7520 for more information or to schedule an appointment.
If you have misplaced your screening card, the school will be able to verify screening with Family
Connections. If your child’s screening was done in another district, please provide a copy of the early
childhood screening to the district office.

Listed below are the immunizations necessary for your child to begin kindergarten. Check your
