2026-27 Kindergarten Registration Information

Kindergarten registration is now open!

If you are unsure which school your child(ren) will attend, please see the district boundary map.

To register your child for Kindergarten, your child must be five (5) years old on or before September 1, 2026. Below is an outline of the registration process.

Step 1: Secure Required Proof of Residency

To register your child for Kindergarten, you will need the following items:

  • Original birth certificate for your child
  • Proof of residency

The proof of residency has three categories, and one document from each is required:

Category 1 requires either a Driver’s License or State Photo ID (with current address)
Category 2 requires either a real estate tax bill or mortgage statement if you own your home or a signed current lease if you rent.
Category 3 requires either a utility bill, an automobile registration, or a public aid card (with current address)

Step 2: Contact the school where your child will be enrolled for more information and to schedule a time to submit your registration documents.

Summer update:

Pre-K, Elementary, and Middle School offices are now closed and will reopen on Monday, August 3. District office personnel are also available to assist you during the summer by calling (630) 516-7700.
