Parents are invited to visit their child’s prospective school in person between 9 a.m. and 3 p.m. to provide the following required documents to register: birth certificate, immunization records (including hepatitis A and B, DTAP, MMR, IPV and varicella — contact your physician’s office to ensure compliance for school) and proof of residency in Carson City (utility bill, mortgage or rental papers, voter registration, etc.).
Additionally, children who will be 4 years old by Sept. 30 and whose family qualifies under the federal household poverty guidelines can apply for the district’s pre-kindergarten program for the 2019-20 school year. There is limited space for pre-kindergarten students zoned for the following schools: Bordewich Bray, Empire, Fremont and Mark Twain Elementary schools. At this time, Fritsch and Al Seeliger schools will not be accepting pre-kindergarten applications.
Applications for pre-K in Carson City can be submitted beginning March 11 at 604 W. Musser St., Carson City, Nev. 89703. Click on “Pre-K” under the “Parents” tab on the district’s website. Parents should direct any pre-K inquiries to Katie McDowell at 775-283-1509.
