Everything You Need To Know About Kindergarten Registration in Somers

SOMERS, NY—Kindergarten registration for the Somers Central School District is ongoing at the district's Human Resources Office at Somers Middle School at 250 Route 202. If your child is eligible for enrollment in Primrose Elementary School, here's what you need to know.

Parents enrolling their children at Primrose need some documents on hand.

New York State law requires that all incoming kindergarten students have a physical and a dental health exam before entering school. Parents must supply a certificate stamped by a doctor, physician's assistant or nurse practitioner describing the student's physical condition. A current immunization record or proof of exemption must also be submitted.

Parents should provide their child's birth certificate or passport to prove the child's age. To prove the guardian's identity, a valid, government-issued driver or non-driver ID card can be presented. If applicable, produce proof of guardianship. Proof of residency is required and could include a tax bill, driver's license, utility bill, paycheck stub or tax return, among other items.
