If you have a student entering Kindergarten for the 2026-2027 school year and are interested in them being screened for the Begindergarten Program, please contact Jodi Keever at Silas Willard Elementary School to set up a screening, 309-973-2015.
Begindergarten is a full-day program designed for children who meet the age requirements for kindergarten but may benefit from an additional year of growth before entering a traditional kindergarten classroom. The program provides a supportive learning environment where students strengthen academic foundations while developing social, emotional, and self-regulation skills needed for kindergarten success. #Thisis205
