Kindergarten registration days at Dublin City Schools elementary buildings are scheduled for April 14 and April 20.
Parents should contact their buildings after Feb. 16 to make an appointment for either of those two dates. Times will vary by building. A building representative will provide parents with additional details.
Students must turn five years old prior to Sept. 30, 2010 to be eligible to enter kindergarten.
* Parents are asked to bring copies of the following papers for registration:
1. Original Birth Certificate or Passport
2. Immunization Records
3. Proof of Residency (i.e. utility bill)
4. Child’s Social Security Number
5. Custody Papers (if applicable)
Any questions about kindergarten registration should be directed to the office of the school your child will be attending.
As you plan for the beginning of kindergarten, please be aware of the three-day phase-in for kindergarten students.
The phase-in helps with the transition to kindergarten because the students are brought into schools in small groups. On each of the three days of the phase-in, one-third of the students attend class.
During the phase-in time, students are oriented to the world of kindergarten and teachers take some time to accurately assess individual skill levels in a small-group setting.
The phase-in period is Aug. 23-25. Your child will only be attending kindergarten one of the first three days of school. On the fourth day, Thursday, Aug. 26, all kindergarten students attend school.
Additional information regarding the phase-in will be provided during the registration nights in April.
