Registration for Batavia City School District kindergarteners entering school in the 2012-13 school year begins this week.
Children who will be 5 years old on or before Dec. 1 are eligible to attend kindergarten in the fall.
To register, parents must go to the main office of the nearest public elementary school (see addresses and other school-specific information below) between 9 a.m. and 3:30 p.m. on school days and bring with them proof of residency -- such as a current utility bill or formal lease agreement, as well as the child's birth certificate, Social Security card, and complete record of immunizations.
Please note that no child may be registered without the required documentation.
At the time of registration, parents should also make an appointment for the kindergarten screening procedure which will be scheduled for late May and early June.
For more information, call your elementary school office or the district's Curriculum Office at 343-2480, ext. 1001.
