Any child who will be five years old before Sept. 1, 2025 is eligible to enter kindergarten in the fall
It’s time to enroll in the Class of 2038! Online enrollment is open for kindergartners who will attend Ridgefield School District next year. Any child who will be five years old before Sept. 1, 2025 is eligible to enter kindergarten in the fall.
Parents will need proof of their child’s birth date and medically verified immunization records. Note that for students entering school in the fall, the State of Washington requires that immunization records be medically verified.
Families can find out which school their child will attend by using the Clark County Property Information Center and searching by address. Parents/guardians must enroll their children at the school assigned to their address, even if they plan to request a boundary exception.
Enrolled students and their families are invited to attend a kindergarten orientation at their child’s school. These orientations are a time for you and your child to get to know your school and to learn more about the kindergarten program. Enrolling your child prior to these orientations is a key step in being prepared for the school year, and helps the district plan for the number of teachers and classrooms it will need to serve our youngest students.
