Pasco Kindergarten Registration: What Parents Need To Know

LAND O’ LAKES, FL — Pasco County parents with children at home who turn 5 on or before Sept. 1, 2016, can get a jump on kindergarten registration for next school year.

Pasco County Schools has announced that May 2 is the scheduled pre-registration day for all district elementary schools. Individual schools do have orientation activities planned that day, but times might vary, the district wrote in an email to media. With that in mind, it’s recommended parents check directly with a school to find out when to show up.

Parents not sure which school their child will attend can check boundaries and get school addresses and phone numbers on the district’s website at http://www.pasco.k12.fl.us/schools.

Registration Requirements

Aside from a child being 5 on or before Sept. 1, parents need to bring the following things to registration:

• Child’s birth certificate or other proof of birth date
• Health examination proof, HRS Form 3040
• HRS Certificate of Immunization
• Proof of Florida residency, such as a utility bill, lease agreement, driver’s license or state identification card
