KINDERGARTEN REgistRation

Your child may be registered for kindergarten beginning in mid-February. Your child will be admitted if they will be five years old on or before September 30th. The original copy of your child’s birth certificate must be presented when they registers. Because many businesses and government agencies accept school records as an authoritative source for birth record, it is necessary for date of birth to be verified.

Health and dental forms will be available during spring online registration. These forms should be taken to your family physician and dentist to be completely filled out, then returned to school by August 1st. Please make sure the vision and hearing section is also completed by your doctor.

Our district health aide, Holly McCormack, RN, MSN, is available to discuss any health concerns you may have about your child’s care. She can be reached at hmccormack@mariemontschools.org or 513-272-7405.
