School officials are encouraging families who will join the Westport School District this fall to register as soon as possible.
These families include those moving to Westport, have children entering kindergarten, or have children who will transfer from private schools.
Those who are not sure of their district elementary or middle school can find the information on the school district Web site, Westport.k12.ct.us.
No appointment is necessary to register in grades kindergarten through fifth.
Those registering students for the middle schools should call Bedford Middle School at (203)341-1501 or Coleytown Middle School at (203) 341-1607. To register for the high school, call the guidance office for an appointment at (203)341-1225.
“Preparations for 2006-07 have already started,” said Superintendent of Schools Elliott Landon.
“There are many elements that go into the planning process for a new school year, and everything is affected by enrollment. The sooner we have a firm count on the number of students in each school and grade, the better we can plan.”
