Children must be fully toilet trained and independent in the bathroom prior to their enrollment in a TUITION-BASED 4-year-old kindergarten program. Independence means that the child wears regular underwear (not in pull-ups or diapers), must have the awareness to use the bathroom without reminders, be able to manage clothing without assistance, and have the ability to wipe or clean themselves appropriately to maintain proper hygiene. If your child is not yet fully toilet trained and you have concerns about his or her development, you may contact Special Services at (803) 821-1101 to schedule a screening appointment.
