Registration for incoming kindergarten students for the 2012-2013 school year will be held in all five of the — Edgewood, Fox Meadow, Greenacres, Heathcote and Quaker Ridge — from Monday, March 5 to Friday, March 9.
Students may be registered between 9 a.m. and 3 p.m. Children whose fifth birthday falls on or before Dec. 31, 2012 may be registered.
Documents needed include immunization records, proof of age such as birth certificate or passport, and proof of residency, along with the registration forms and instructions, which may be downloaded at www.scarsdaleschools.k12.ny.us/registration (on the District Web site, click on Parent Information, and then on the "Student Registration" link), or obtained at the school.
Proof of residency can be either in the form of a copy of the deed for a house, or a signed rental agreement (lease), plus a utility bill. School officials warned that parents seeking to register students must be aware that some homes in this area have a Scarsdale mailing address, but are not within the Scarsdale School District.
If there is any doubt, contact the District office for verification: 914-721-2444. Enrollment in one of our five elementary schools is determined by the neighborhood in which you live.
For questions concerning registration, call your local elementary school.
