Parents are invited to visit their child’s prospective school in person between 9 a.m. and 3 p.m. to provide the following required documents to register: birth certificate, immunization records (including hepatitis A & B, DTAP, MMR, IPV and varicella — contact your physician’s office to ensure compliancy for school) and proof of residency in Carson City (utility bill, mortgage or rental papers, voter registration, etc.).

Additionally, children who will be 4 years old by Sept. 30, 2020, and whose family qualifies under the federal household income guidelines at https://aspe.hhs.gov/poverty-guidelines can apply for the district’s pre-kindergarten program for the 2020-21 school year. There is limited space for Pre-K students zoned for the following schools: Bordewich Bray, Empire, Fremont and Mark Twain elementary schools. At this time, Fritsch and Al Seeliger will not be accepting pre-k applications.

Applications for pre-k in Carson City can be submitted beginning March 9 at 604 W. Musser St., Carson City, Nev. 89703. Check to see if your family qualifies under the “Parents” tab on the district’s website. Parents should direct any inquiries to the Pre-K Office at 775-283-1509.
