Kindergarten Registration Process

KINDERGARTEN REGISTRATION PROCESS & TIMELINE

Step 1: Child Search

In January of the school year prior to enrollment, our elementary schools begin what is known as "Child Search".  Letters are sent home with all children currently enrolled in our elementary schools.  In addition, a "Child Search" form is added to our website.  The purpose of Child Search is to identify all children who are of age to enter Kindergarten during the next school year so that additional registration information can be sent to prospective families.

Step 2: Kindergarten Information Letters

In early spring, letters/emails from elementary school principals are sent to all families identified during the Child Search process.  The letter/email will include additional information regarding registration at your child's school and the Kindergarten screening process.

Letters will go out in March 2026 and will include instructions for the online registration (step 3 below).

Step 3: Online Registration Forms - Kindergarten Registration will be available in PS Enrollment in March.  Do not attempt to complete online registration before March.  Instructions will be included in the Kindergarten Information Letters (step 1 above). 

Documents required for registration can be uploaded to PS Enrollment or mailed/hand delivered to the school. The following documents are required for registration.

  • Deed, lease agreement, mortgage bill, tax bill, the electric bill, or water bill (dated within the past 60 days)
  • Current driver's license or valid photo ID
  • Child's birth certificate
  • Child's immunization and physician's examination records (dated within the past 13 months)
  • Previous school records (if applicable) (Preschool progress report)
  • Copy of court/custody papers (if applicable)
  • If you reside with a friend or family member and do not own or lease your home, the homeowner must submit a NOTARIZED letter stating you and your child(ren) reside with them at their Pembroke address. The homeowner will also need to submit a copy of their deed, lease agreement, mortgage bill, tax bill, electric bill, or water bill.
  • Completed Kindergarten Parent Questionnaire. 

Step 4: Print and Complete the Kindergarten Parent Questionnaire and return to the school prior to the screening dates.

Step 5: Kindergarten Screening

Once your PowerSchool registration is completed, and all required documents are received, including the Parent Questionnaire, you will be emailed a link to sign up for your child's screening. 

Families will be asked to fill out a Kindergarten Parent Questionnaire linked below.
