Enrollments
 
Kindergarten enrollment applications for the 2025-2026 school year will be available through the Scribbles enrollment portal, linked here, from January 15 to May 21, 2025.  Due to the transition from PowerSchool to Infinite Campus, there will be a pause in enrollments beginning on May 22, 2025.  After that date, if not completed, you will have to begin your enrollment again in the new enrollment system.
