Kindergarten

The Canajoharie Central School District normally conducts Kindergarten Screening and Registration in the spring for children entering Kindergarten the following September. New residents who miss the scheduled registration dates can contact Mrs. Sherri Hodge at the East Hill Elementary School at 673-6310 to schedule an appointment.

New York State Education Law requires that every child entering Kindergarten be screened for possible handicapping conditions which may have an effect on their education. For a child to enter Kindergarten in September, he or she must be at least five years old on or before December 1 of the previous year. When registering a child, parents must bring the child’s:

  • birth certificate
  • social security card
  • proof of residency (tax bill or letter from your landlord)
  • immunization record signed by a doctor
  • a completed school entrance record
  • registration cards with them when they register the child.

For further questions, please contact Mrs. Sherri Hodge at the East Hill Elementary School at 673-6310.
