Kindergarten Registration Time Is Here!

Its that time again! Schools in our area are gearing up for open enrollment for kindergarten students. We know the whole ordeal can be a bit daunting, especially if this is your first child to come of school age. Not to worry, we’ve got the information and resources you need to get your kiddo(s) kindergarten ready! Check out our helpful checklist of things to know and consider before enrolling your child, and our fairly standard checklist of documents you will most likely need to do so. We’ve also compiled dates and information per school or school district to help you navigate the process.

Standard Checklist:

Below is a summary of the things you will most likely need to gather for enrollment. For the 2025-26 school year, your child must be 5 years old by September 1, 2025. Of course, each school may have their own specifications and additional requirements, but this is a good starting place!

Immunization records
-Documentation of a medical physical and dental records
-For public schools: Two proofs of residency (driver’s license, copy of current paycheck, utility bill, lease, W-2 statement, etc.)
