Kindergarten registration is a TWO step process. 

First step - complete online registration. If you have never registered a student in D102, please follow the New Student instructions. Kindergarten students with older siblings will follow Returning Families/Student instructions. Please note you must complete registration for returning students before registering a new student. 

Second step - upload or bring the following paperwork to your kindergarten school of choice. Please note that once you have submitted your online registration form, you cannot make corrections or upload documents. Kindergarten placement is based on the order in which we receive your child's completed registration information as follows:  

  • All kindergarten students must provide an original birth certificate and Kindergarten Information Form (now included in the online registration process) to their first-choice school.

  • If you are new to the district, you must provide your student's original birth certificate, Kindergarten Information Form(now included in the online registration process), and the required residency paperwork to your first-choice school.

PLEASE NOTE: Kindergarten spaces fill up quickly. Your child is not confirmed to attend kindergarten for the 2024-2025 school year until the above paperwork is received. Your school choice is not confirmed until a District Representative notifies you.
