Where does my Kindergartener go to school?
Students are assigned to elementary school based on their street address. This map shows each elementary school district by streets. School officials will determine school placement. Families do not need to select a school during the registration process.
Registration Process
Kindergarten central registration for the 2022-2023 school year will be held Thursday, May 5, 2022 at the Jones Early Childhood Center (137 Walnut St. in Stoughton) and will require both online and in-person components. Please read the following message carefully to understand the registration process.
First, families of incoming Kindergarten students will complete a pre-registration form, which can be found by clicking here.
Once this pre-registration form is completed, and the district processes the information, families will receive an email with instructions for creating a parent portal account. Parents should then log into the parent portal and complete the additional required registration forms. Parents with an existing account should use the email address associated with their current account to register their incoming Kindergarten student.
After submitting these forms, families will receive the directions to schedule an appointment for May 5 at the Jones Early Childhood Center to complete the registration process. Families will be able to select times between 2-4pm and 5-7pm.
