Families who do not receive a letter from the school during the first week of January 2021 are encouraged to call their child's assigned homeschool or the office of Elementary Education at 315-622-7177 for further information.

Registration Dates
In the past, Kindergarten Registration was held on three separate nights at the Liverpool CSD District Office. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, however, registration will be conducted by appointment only at the Registration Office (195 Blackberry Road).

Kindergarten Registration will take place from January 25 to March 31, 2021. Parents and guardians may start their child's registration early, by visiting the Liverpool CSD's Online Student Registration page and completing ALL FIVE registration links.

The Registration Office has reserved the following dates for those needing in-person late afternoon or early evening appointments:

  • February 2, 2021
  • February 3, 2021
  • February 4, 2021

The Registration Office encourages all families to fill out ALL FIVE REGISTRATION FORMS  online. Once those online forms have been completed, a parent or guardian  MUST NOTIFY the Registration Office by phone (315 622-7193) or by e-mail to Susan Graves (sgraves@liverpool.k12.ny.us).

Once notified, the Registration Office will schedule an appointment for a primary parent or guardian (required) at the District Office (195 Blackberry Road). The parent or guardian will be asked to provide the district with the required documentation (listed below) to finalize registration.

Kindergarten Screening
According to NYS law, children entering kindergarten participate in a brief exercise called "kindergarten screening." It consists of several tasks for the child to complete. In Liverpool, students will be screened in June. Screenings will be coordinated at the building level following registration, and at future dates prior to the start of school.

Additional Information
Kindergarten students registering after the last day of the school year must enroll at the Registration Office (District Office, 195 Blackberry Road). Questions about kindergarten registration procedures should be directed to the child’s future home school building or the Registration Office (315-622-7193).
