Registration dates for Beaufort County public kindergarten, PreK classes

Registration for the Beaufort County School District's kindergarten and prekindergarten classes for the 2016-2017 school year will be held Feb. 1 through March 1.

During that month, parents with children who will be five years old by Sept. 1 may complete kindergarten enrollment packets. Parents with children who will be four years old by Sept. 1 should register for pre-kindergarten at their neighborhood schools.

Parents with questions about school attendance zones should call any elementary school in their area.

Because space is limited for Pre-K, 4 year olds will be assessed for possible enrollment during "Child Find" screenings the week of March 7-11.

For all student enrollments, parents should bring their child's birth certificate, South Carolina Certificate of Immunization (shot record) and two proofs of residency such as a utility bill showing a home address.

For more information, call the district office's Office of Early Childhood at 843-521-2399 or visit www.beaufort.k12.sc.us.
