Kindergarten Registration for the 22/23 Academic Year begins March 14, 2022.
Children entering kindergarten must be 5 years old by August 1 of that school year to enroll. For more information, see Board Policy 5112. The district offers half-day kindergarten both morning and afternoon sessions. Parents may request a morning or afternoon preference. Depending on the number of parents with preferences, a lottery may be held to determine placement.
AM Kindergarten is from 9:15 a.m. to 12:15 p.m.
PM Kindergarten is from 1:05 p.m. to 4:05 p.m.
To start the kindergarten registration process, parents fill out the online registration form through Infinite Campus. This form will not be active for the 2022-23 school year until Monday, March 14, 2022.
The first step in the process is to identify yourself as an “existing” or “new” family in the district.
Existing families are those who have a student currently enrolled in our district. These families should register students by logging into their existing Infinite Campus parent portal account. If you do not know your access information, see the Infinite Campus information below. You must still provide the required residency documents. Please do not complete the application as an “Annual Update”.
New families have never had a child enrolled in our district. “New” families should proceed by going to the online registration form.
Please note that if you are not the residential/custodial parent or if you do not currently live in the district, you should call the Welcome Center at 614.920.6180 before beginning the enrollment process. This will ensure a timely processing of your application.
If you experience technical issues while accessing the online registration system, please try the following:
- Read and follow all directions carefully.
- Close applications and files other than the web browser you are using to register.
- Update your web browser to the latest version, or try a different browser.
- Registering with a tablet or smartphone is not recommended.
Kindergarten registration for fall 2022 begins in the district on Monday, March 14.
After completing the application — including uploading required documents — please submit the application. Once submitted, Welcome Center staff will review the application and contact you by email if there is anything else needed. Depending on the number of applications received in a day, the process can take 24 to 72 hours.
If the application is completed without issue, an email will be sent to the parent stating the application has been approved/processed, and the paperwork will be forwarded to the appropriate school. Please wait for further communication to come directly from the school regarding readiness assessments and teacher assignments.
Parents are advised that, due to the high number of calls, our staff and phone lines at the Welcome Center may be very busy at the beginning of kindergarten registration. Please be patient and leave a voicemail or send an email with questions or concerns.
