Kindergarten & 1st Grade Registration

PLEASE REGISTER NOW so schools have correct number of teachers and all preparations are made to welcome your child! 

Children who will be five years old on or before September 1 of the current year must enroll in public or private kindergarten unless the parent or legal guardian signs a waiver (Kindergarten Non-Attendance Form).  Any child who will be six years old on or before September 1 of the current year must enroll in first grade. Students who are currently enrolled in a GCS 4K or 5K program do not need to register.

 

There are two ways to enroll:

1. Online Via BackPack

Parents should set up a Backpack account. Once it’s set up, open the Backpack account, look for “Enroll A Student,” and follow the instructions.
