Register Your Kindergartner Now

Mesa Public Schools

If your child will be starting kindergarten in fall, it’s not too early to prepare.

Mesa Public Schools begins registering for kindergarten Monday, Jan. 26, with evening registration on Tuesday, Jan. 27.

Why register now? Doing so will provide adequate planning time, not just for your family, but also for your child’s school. By registering now, schools can plan for class size management and teacher allocations, leading to a smooth start of the school year.

What School Is Right for My Child?

Mesa Public Schools is a vast network of excellent school choices. Along with top-notch Mesa neighborhood schools, several specialized opportunities are available.

If your child would benefit from a classroom balance between freedom and responsibility, Montessori is a great option. Bush, Johnson and Pomeroy elementary schools offer this program.

Does he show a talent for languages? Hermosa Vista and Keller elementary schools offer a dual-language program, which teaches non-English and English speakers together to speak, read and write in English and Spanish.

If your child is a budding artist, Highland Arts Elementary may be just right for him. In the classroom, visual, dramatic and musical arts are integrated into academics.

Looking to get back to basics in a classroom setting? Franklin Traditional schools are available at multiple locations.

For a private-school education in a public-school setting, look no further than Summit Academy’s International Baccalaureate Program. Multi-cultural awareness, diversity and global themes are emphasized.

If you choose to homeschool your child, Eagleridge Enrichment Program delivers individualized, engaging classes provided by state-certified instructors, and parents receive resources free of charge.

How to Prepare

To register a kindergarten student in a Mesa school, you will need a certified copy of the child’s birth certificate, current immunization record and proof of residency. Children enrolling in kindergarten must turn 5 years old before Sept. 1. Options are available for younger learners, including prekindergarten and early-entrance assessment.

If you are unsure about your child’s kindergarten readiness, have a milestones discussion with his preschool teacher or pediatrician. Consider speaking with the principal or a kindergarten teacher at your child’s future school, and explore the school’s website for helpful information.

Mesa Public Schools will host a variety of events for potential and registered kindergarten families this year. For more information, please visit www.mpsaz.org/curriculum/kindergarten/.
