Gage Williams tries to see how much he has grown as his height is checked by Sikeston Kindergarten Center nurse Marian Malone. Gage will be among the students to take part in the enrollment and screening for the 2010-11 kindergarten class from May 3-6. The enrollment process takes about an hour and half. Parents in the Sikeston R-6 School District with children who will be 5 years old by July 31 should make an appointment for screening and enrollment by calling 471-0653. Those with appointment will be taken ahead of walk-ins, school officials said.
