KINDERGARTEN REGISTRATION FOR FALL 2021

All NYC families with children born in 2016 may apply to Kindergarten for the 2021-2022 school year. Kindergarten families who applied online by the January 2021 deadline received their child’s Kindergarten offer on April 8th, viewable in the MySchools.nyc portal. The deadline to accept or decline your child’s offer is April 30.

Registration for new students will once again be online for the 2021-22 school year. For Kindergarten families, once you have accepted your child’s offer (click “accept” in MySchools to do this), we will contact you soon afterwards to begin the enrollment process.  At this time we are unable to predict whether we will be making offers to students on our Kindergarten waitlist.

For children who have recently moved to an address zoned for our school and wish to enroll for Fall 2021, we will post registration dates shortly; please keep an eye on our website for updates. If your family has just moved to our school zone and you wish to enroll your child for the current school year, please email Parent Coordinator Deb Orr (parentcoordinator@ps321.info). For more information, read the “New Arrivals” section below.

In order to enroll your child, you will need to upload:

2 proofs of address – Con Edison and National Grid utility bills preferred*.
Birth Certificate or Passport.
Your child’s full immunization records. Go HERE for a list of required immunizations.
IEP (if applicable).

During registration, we will have an online portal available for families to upload their documents and required forms (please don’t email them straight to us).

(*At least one gas or electric utility bill/welcome letter should be presented. Alternate proofs of address can be a W-2 or payroll receipt dated within the past 60 days, current property tax bill, current water bill, letter from a government agency dated within the past 60 days, co-op/condo papers, insurance, deed, signed lease or mortgage statement.)

Please go to the DOE website’s Kindergarten page to learn more about Kindergarten Admissions and to view the 2020 Kindergarten Admissions Guide.

NEW ARRIVALS/GRADES 1 -5

For newly arrived or returning families with children in Grades 1 – 5 who live in the 321 school zone and who wish to enroll for the 2021-2022 school year,  we will have registration materials available online later this spring. Please keep an eye on this page for updates, or contact Parent Coordinator Deb Orr. Children can not be registered prior to a move; they must already be in residence at an address zoned for our school. We enroll all zoned students in grades 1 – 5; we do not have a waitlist for in-zone students in those grades. In order to register, families will be required to submit the documents listed above (under Kindergarten Registration), along with their child’s latest report card (optional but recommended).

There will be no in-person registration prior to the beginning of the school year for 2021-2022. We hope to begin registering our newly arrived students online by late spring ’21 (updates will be posted here and on our home page). Online registration will continue over the summer break.
