Families with children who are five years of age by August 31, should start the enrollment process now

School districts across Southwest Washington are now enrolling kindergarten students for the 2022-23 school year. Families with children who are five years of age by August 31, should start the enrollment process now. 

How to Enroll

1. Check the Geographic Information Systems (GIS) website in your county of residence to determine your assigned school district. Here are links to Clark and Cowlitz County sites. 
2. Contact the assigned school district to determine specific enrollment steps. In most cases, kindergarten enrollment can be completed online. Information for districts in Clark and Cowlitz County is listed below. 
3. Visit the school. After a child has been enrolled for kindergarten in their assigned district, most districts conduct a school visit. You can find out a district’s process and protocols by getting in touch with your district of residence. 
4. Students must have all of the required immunizations or an approved exemption before they start school. Washington state law requires that you show verification of your child’s required vaccinations before the first day of school. Children without verification of immunizations will not be allowed to attend school.
