Online Enrollment Completion and Confirmation
To ensure the safety of staff and to efficiently manage student enrollments in a timely manner most enrollment applications and information will be processed online. Once the enrollment center receives a completed online application an enrollment specialist will contact you to complete the enrollment.
Kindergarten Visits
Once an enrollment specialist completes the enrollment of a student, families can set up a Kindergarten Visit at their new school this spring.
Current Preschool, Head Start and Early Childhood Education families
If you currently have a student that is attending our Special Needs Preschool, Peer Model, Head Start, or Early Childhood Education (ECE) program AND they will be going to Kindergarten next year, you DO NOT have to re-enroll your child for Kindergarten. They are already enrolled in our school district. They are automatically " rolled" over to Kindergarten and are all set for the 2025-2026 school year. Your child's Preschool teacher will be in contact with you closer to the end of the school year regarding your child's transition into Kindergarten.
