KINDERGARTEN REGISTRATION

Kindergarten classes are an important part of the Central Dauphin educational experience. According to Board policy a child must be five (5) years of age before September 1, 2021, to be eligible to attend kindergarten during the 2021-22 school term.  Enrollment is limited to the first-ten days of school. A child must be enrolled in the school located in the area in which the parent/guardian resides unless granted a one year hardship approved by the assistant superintendent due to extenuating circumstances as described in Board policy.

The parents/guardian should contact the local school in their area to setup an appointment on the pre-scheduled kindergarten registration date.  If the parent/guardian cannot attend on the pre-scheduled date for their area they must call the Central Registration Office (717-545-4703, extension 222) at the Central Dauphin School District Administration Building, 600 Rutherford Road, Harrisburg, PA to request forms and setup an appointment in May 2021.  At the time of the appointment, the parent/guardian MUST have with them their child’s original birth certificate (stating parents’ names), child’s immunization record to date (written proof from physician), current parent/guardian photo identification, and proof of residence (signed lease, signed sales agreement or recent real estate tax bill are the documents acceptable for proof of residence).
