Please download documents for enrollment by visiting the District website after February 1, athttp://www.piedmont.k12.ca.us/district-­info/enrollment. Please bring paper copies of relevant documentation to submit that day. Parents are required to bring birth certificates of children to be registered to show proof of age. Children should not accompany parents for enrollment.

Parents must provide, at the time of enrollment, a grant deed or property tax statement and three additional proofs of residency. Parents renting/leasing must provide, at the time of enrollment, a lease AND a copy of the property owner’s rental permit from the city, and three additional proofs of residency. For information on acceptable proofs, you may refer to School Board Policies posted at: www.piedmont.k12.ca.us/forms/board/5000.pdf -­‐ select Administrative Regulation 5111.1.

State law requires that parents/guardians submit an immunization record prior to kindergarten entry. Parents should come prepared with documented evidence showing complete dates that children have been adequately immunized.

To enroll in our Kindergarten program, children must be 5 years old on or before October 1st, 2013.

It is anticipated that each school will have several classes at each grade level. It is the intent to keep class sizes similar from school to school. In order to do this, children may be assigned to a Piedmont school outside their immediate residency area. Every attempt will be made to keep siblings together and to look at school proximity if a shift is necessary. However, students may be transferred to another elementary school in the District within the first two weeks of the new school year.

The Piedmont Unified School District offers a Transitional Kindergarten program. In keeping with State guidelines, this program targets students who turn 5 years old between September 2nd and December 2nd.
