The Marquette Area Public Schools provides all day, every day kindergarten, and all day, and every day junior kindergarten. Junior kindergarten is not typically offered at all four of our buildings. A decision as to how many sections of junior kindergarten will be held and what buildings will have junior kindergarten will be made after the enrollment process has been completed.

According to Michigan Law (MCL 380.1147) Children are required to be five years old on or before December 1 of the school calendar year in which the child attends school.

The junior kindergarten program was developed to give younger children more time to develop socially, emotionally and academically before entering kindergarten.

The District provides transportation for kindergarten and junior kindergarten students enrolled all day who live outside the kindergarten walk area and attend their resident school.

The kindergarten program is an all-day structured program taught by certified teachers that follows the Common Core State Standards for language arts and mathematics
