Welcome to PSD! 

 

 

 

Kindergarten is an exciting and important first step on your student's educational journey. In PSD, you'll find students are supported in many ways, which include caring teachers and staff, positive school and classroom culture, as well as a collaborative, safe and welcoming learning environment.

 

 

 

Kindergarten registration for the 2020-21 school year

Parents and guardians may register their child in-person at their neighborhood school on Kindergarten Registration Day during school hours on Thursday, Jan. 16. Parents can also register their new kindergarten student for the 2020-21 school year online beginning Jan. 6. Please visit the PSD Online Registration for New Students web page for information.

 

Eligibility

For the 2019-20 school year, your child must be 5 years old on or before September 15 to register for kindergarten. Younger students may be accepted if they transfer to PSD from another public school's kindergarten program.

Beginning with the 2020-21 school year, entrance age requirements for kindergarten will change, requiring that children be 5 years old on or before Oct. 1, 2020 (see the updated Superintendent's Policy JEB).
