Early-kindergarten screens now cost $35 in Apache Junction school district

To get a 4-year-old child enrolled in kindergarten at Apache Junction Unified School District, parents will pay a new non-refundable $35 fee for the child to be screened to see if they are ready to learn with 5 year olds.

The AJUSD governing board voted unanimously April 23 to approve the fee for early-kindergarten screenings.

Kindergarten students must be 5 years old by Aug. 31 to enroll for the 2024-25 school year, according to the district’s website.
