Kindergarten registration for Shamong children entering kindergarten in September is scheduled for Feb. 23 through 26.
Parents should complete the registration packet during this week to help school officials organize classes for next year.
To be eligible for kindergarten, a child must be 5 years of age on or before Oct. 1.
It is not necessary for parents to bring their children to registration. However, parents must bring the following paperwork:
• Original birth certificate with state seal
• Medical records — particularly immunization records
• Four proofs of residency. One proof must be one of the following items: deed, contract of sale, lease, mortgage, property tax bill, signed letters from landlord, and/or any other evidence of property ownership, tenancy or residency.
Please log onto the school website www.ims.k12.nj.us for additional residency requirements. Please call Mrs. Russell at (609) 268–0220 ext. 2001 to make an appointment to register.
