Orchard Hill Weekly Update

Friday, June 5th, 2026

From Mr. Tortora

Dear Orchard Hill Families,
The hot weather has finally arrived just in time for our PTO Ice Cream Social tonight!! Today, we had our first ever Graduation Walk - former OH students who are now South Windsor High School graduating seniors walked through the hallways as students and staff cheered them on. It was a memorable experience and great to see the success of our Orchard Hill alum!!
Have a great weekend!
-Mike

2026-2027 Kindergarten Registration

Colorful text reads 'Kindergarten' surrounded by school supplies like crayons, scissors, and a globe.
South Windsor Public Schools is excited to welcome our 2026 - 2027 Kindergarten class! Your child is about to take an exciting next step in their education. We are looking forward to the beginning of a collaborative partnership between home and school in order to provide a successful transition for both your child and your family.

The South Windsor full-day kindergarten program is available to children who are residents of South Windsor and who are (or will be) age five (5) on or before September 1, 2026. 

If your child’s birthday is after September 1, 2026, and you would like them considered for kindergarten this fall, you may fill out the pre-registration form and check the appropriate box and the principal will schedule an assessment to determine if admitting your child would be developmentally appropriate.
