Kindergarten Information

Peters Township: Kindergarten

We are excited to welcome your child to Peters Township!

Children must be five years old on or before September 1 to enter kindergarten in our schools. If your child will not be five years old by September 1, and you wish to explore early entry, please contact the building principal to review early entry criteria.

Below is a step by step guide for registering your child for kindergarten in Peters Township Schools:

Step One:

To get started, the District requires the following information to complete your child’s registration. Please begin by gathering the requested forms listed below.

Proof of your child’s age
Verification of residency (3 forms as outlined on the checklist)
A copy of your child’s YTD Immunizations as required by law

Please refer to the registration checklist below for more details as well as examples of acceptable documentation. Also listed below, you will find links to videos created by our Kindergarten teams at Bower Hill and Pleasant Valley that can help you with the registration process and assist your family as you make the transition to Kindergarten.

Step Two:

The District also requires that a health packet is completed for each child. The packet consists of three items that must be returned:

A completed physical examination form (form provided, must be completed by your physician).
A completed dental examination form (form provided, must be completed by your dentist).
A completed Medical History form (form provided, may be completed by the parent).

If your child has already seen a doctor or dentist IN THIS CALENDAR YEAR, please have them complete these forms and bring them with you to registration. These completed documents may be scanned and uploaded through the online registration portal (See Step 3). Hard copies will also be accepted at registration.

Please download copies of the Health Forms below:

Physical, Dental and Health History forms provided.

Step Three:

Complete the online registration forms for your child. Using the portal, parents also have the option of uploading a scanned copy of their competed medical forms or proof of residency. If able, please scan the documents as part of your child’s registration. Once you have submitted your child’s online registration, you will be contacted by your child’s school to review your application for any missing documents and learn more about the next steps to finalizing your student’s registration.

Please note: If you are a parent with an older child in the District, you may already have a SchoolMint account. Please log in with your username and password and the system will automatically retrieve some of your demographic information. Questions or trouble with the online form? Please contact the Technology Office at 724-941-6251 x7261.
