Waverly Community Schools Great Start Readiness Program (GSRP)

Waverly is proud to offer tuition free GSRP PreK classrooms for 4 year olds during the 2024-2025 school year.

Each classroom will utilize certified teachers and an assistant in each classroom, an overall teacher/student ratio of 1 to 8 for our program. Play is the primary vehicle for a child's development in the social/emotional, intellectual, language and literary, creative, physical and health areas of development. Each day children will have opportunities to play and learn. Our GSRP will focus on small and large motor development, music and movement, language and literacy (including pre-reading skills), social/emotional learning, and whole group and small group instruction. Connect4Learning has research-based and classroom-tested foundations in literacy, science, social-emotional, and mathematics learning. Each subject is addressed meaningfully and comprehensively with each child.

To apply for the 2024-2025 school year, the child must:

• Have a birth date between 09/02/2019 and 09/01/2020. If seats remain, birth dates between 09/02/2020 and 12/01/2020 will be considered after 09/01/2024.
• Be a resident of Waverly Community Schools

Every child must have a GSRP application completed, click here to complete the application. Once you have completed the GSRP application and the Ingham ISD processes the application, a district registrar will contact you regarding the next steps in the enrollment process.
