Kindergarten Registration Is Open — Please Share With Families You Know

Starting kindergarten is a big milestone—and we’re excited to welcome your child to Albemarle County Public Schools! 🎉

If your child will turn 5 by September 30, 2026, it’s time to register for the 2026-27 school year. School begins on Wednesday, August 12, and we encourage families to register early.

Not a kindergarten family? Please share this message with others who may be getting ready to register.

Let’s Get Started

Who can register?

Your child must:

  • Be 5 years old by September 30, 2026

How to register:
