Kindergarten Registration At All Area Schools; Molino Park To Hold Screenings This Week

August 11, 2009

Anyone with a child headed into kindergarten this year in Escambia County needs to register now. For those starting Molino Park Elementary, it is especially important to register now because there are student screenings and conferences scheduled for Thursday and Friday.

To register for kindergarten for this school year, a student must be five years old on or before September 1, 2009. First grade students must have completed a kindergarten program and be six years old on or before September 1.

At the time of registration, parents need to bring the child’s birth certificate and social security card. Proof of residence, such as an electric bill or rent receipt, is required. Telephone and cable bills are not acceptable proof of residency.

Prior to enrollment for the first time in an Escambia County School, students must have a Florida Blue Card from the health department or physician. An original copy of your child’s school physical should be presented to the school by the first day of class.

On Thursday and Friday of this week, teachers at Molino Park Elementary will be screening new students and conferencing with parents about kindergarten expectations, report cards and parental concerns.

The parents of students that have already registered at Molino Park have been contacted with a time. Those that have not registered need to do so as soon as possible so that they will not miss the orientation, according to Principal Alice Woodward.
