PRE-KINDERGARTEN & KINDERGARTEN REGISTRATION
Pre-Kindergarten and Kindergarten registration for residents of the Tuckahoe Common School District are between the hours of 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. To be eligible for Kindergarten, a child must have a birthdate between 12-01-2008 and 11-30-2009. To be eligible for Pre-Kindergarten, a child must have a birthdate between 12-01-2009 and 11-30-2010. Parents are required to bring birth certificates for their children along with immunization records, a copy of their latest physical, two proofs of residency—if you are currently renting, a lease agreement and if you own your home, a current tax bill will be accepted as proof of residency along with two (2) forms of identification with your name and the address of the residence on it (for example: driver’s license, cablevision bill, LIPA bill, pay stub, bank statement). Please call the school at 283-3550, extension 301 or 321 for an appointment for your registration before February 12th, 2014. Note: It is extremely important that parents with children who are eligible for Pre-K and Kindergarten make every effort to register them on this date. If you know of a neighbor or friend who lives in Tuckahoe and has a child eligible for these programs, please make them aware of this date. A blood lead level is requested for all Pre-K students as per New York State guidelines. This is a routine blood test that may have already been done. Please check with your child’s pediatrician. If you have any questions, please call the Tuckahoe School main office at (531) 283-3550 ext. 301 or 302.
