Kindergarten registration for the 2024-25 school year is NOW OPEN! Children who turn five years old on or before September 15, 2024 are eligible for kindergarten. Please take a moment to read through this information and get your child registered!

If you have any questions please reach out to your elementary school!

Is your student five years old but not quite ready for kindergarten? Mason City Community School District will offer two sections of transitional kindergarten (TK) for the 2024-25 school year.  Space is limited so there will be criteria to determine placement including, child's date of birth, teacher recommendation, previous school experience, and parent recommendation.   Feel free to reach out to your elementary principal if you have any questions.
