HAVE QUESTIONS ABOUT KINDERGARTEN AND THE REGISTRATION PROCESS?
Learn about the day in the life of a kindergartener. In a normal year we would extend the offer to join us at an information session in your community and at each school, where you could hear from kindergarten teachers, talk to our Afterschool team, connect with our Preschool director, and ask questions of the registration team. Due to Covid-19 Restrictions, we are offering alternatives to learn more about our schools. By the end of January, 2021 we will be offering pre-recorded and live introductions to the kindergarten experience and to each individual school. Please check back in late January on our website, this page and Front Porch Forum for more information.
Hi Burlington School District PreK Partners,
Kindergarten registration is now open in Burlington and will remain open through the mid-March. At that time we will place all students who have registered by this time and of course afterwards, we will continue to place newly registered students, but not until those who register by mid-March are placed.

The steps to registering can be found here and are at the end of this email. Please remind your families that when registering for Kindergarten they go into their powerschool account. They DO NOT go to Ecollect for the pre-registration process.
If you or a family needs support registering a student, please contact schools directly or call Kelly McDonald in our central office at 802-865-5332 x1 between 8am and 2pm.
Thanks
