| Children planning to attend kindergarten during the upcoming
2010-2011 school year can register early at their local elementary
school. |
| Again this year, parents can complete and print an online form
to bring with them when registering their child at school. Doing so
will save lots of time in the waiting line. This form is available
under the “Student Enrollment” option in the “Parent Information” tab at
http://www.marion.k12.fl.us,
the district’s web site. |
| Children must be five years old by September 1, 2010, to enter
kindergarten when school starts this August. Currently, over 3,000
children attend kindergarten in Marion County Public Schools. |
To register, parents must present the following:
the child’s certified birth certificate (or legal document
stating the child’s birth date),
proof of residency (the physical address where the
child resides; no PO Boxes),
proof of the child’s physical examination
during the past 12 months,
court records (if applicable in
custody cases),
a Florida Certificate of
Immunization / shot record, and
the child’s Social
Security card.
|
| Parents wanting to register their child for kindergarten may do
so in the Guidance
Office of their local elementary school.
For more information, parents may contact the school their child plans
to attend or the Elementary Education Office of Marion County Public
Schools at 352.236.0577. |
