Call your school and find a good time to register your child. The child’s legal parent or guardian must be there to register the child. You will also need specific documentation in order to register your child for Kindergarten.Step 3: Fill out all Documentation
View a list of enrollment documents that you will need to provide or will be asked to complete at the school site.Remember, your child’s Kindergarten registration is not complete until all the documentation is filled out and completed. This can sometimes be a lengthy process. That’s why it’s important to get started on the registration process as soon as possible.
