Kindergarten Registration Begins January 31

The Liverpool Central School District is preparing for kindergarten registration for the 2022-2023 school year. All resident students born on or before December 1, 2017, are eligible to register for kindergarten for the 2022-2023 school year.

It is important for families to know that all registration forms must be submitted and approved before a spot will be held for a student.

Information Packets

In January, kindergarten information packets will be mailed to families that the district knows have a child eligible to enter kindergarten. Please contact your home school to be placed on its mailing list. 

If you don’t know which building would be your “home” school, please download the “Street Code Book” found here. Find your street to determine which of the four K-2 elementary schools your child will attend in September 2022. 

The Street Code Book has been updated to reflect the new quadrant system that is part of the Education 2020 initiative. Four Liverpool CSD schools will house students in kindergarten through second grade: Donlin Drive Elementary (DDE), Elmcrest Elementary (EE), Long Branch Elementary (LBE) and Willow Field Elementary (WFE).

If you have an eligible child, but do not receive an information packet by January 28, contact your home school to request a packet.

  • Donlin Drive Elementary: 315-453-0249
  • Elmcrest Elementary: 315-453-1252
  • Long Branch Elementary; 315-453-0261
  • Willow Field Elementary: 315-453-1196

Registration Date

Registration will be conducted by appointment only at the Registration Office (195 Blackberry Road) or online. This allows for families to have one-on-one time in the safest way possible, without having to wait in line.

Kindergarten Registration will take place on the following dates for the following assigned home schools: 

  • DDE: January 31 to February 4, 2022
  • EE: February 7 to 11, 2022
  • LBE: February 14 to 18, 2022 
  • WFE: February 22 to 28, 2022 

Please register online prior to your appointment (if you are able to do so) by visiting the Student Registration Web site and filling out ALL FIVE forms found in the middle of the page (links can be found in the orange box). Required documents can be uploaded using the district’s Document Attachment Form.

 Children do not need to be present for any part of the registration process. 

Registration must be completed by the resident parent or legal guardian. 

Any in-person registrations will take place at the District Office (195 Blackberry Road).

Note: Children who will attend a private, parochial or charter school need to be registered at the District Office during normal business hours (7:30 a.m. to 3 p.m.).

What Do I Need to Register My Child?

Begin the registration process by visiting our secure online Web site. Complete the required forms before registration day to expedite your registration experience.  In addition, the following documents are needed to register:

  • Birth Certificate (Original)
  • Immunization Record from Doctor: Signed by the medical provider
  • Proof of Residency: One of the following examples - current utility bill (electric), cable/satellite bill, water bill

  • Resident parent must register child in person

Certain cases may require additional documentation. These include residency affidavits, court issued custody documents, Individual Education Plan (IEP), or Foster Parent Form (DSS-2999).

Screening

According to NYS law, children entering kindergarten are asked to complete several small tasks called “kindergarten screening.” Upon registration, parents will be notified of the scheduled screening dates in May.
