VW independent/submitted information

Parents in the Lincolnview Local School District having a child who will be 5 years of age on or before August 1, may register their child for the 2016-17 school year.

Registration will be conducted during the week of March 7-11 from 7:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the Lincolnview Elementary building. Registration will require about 10 minutes, and registration forms are also available on the Lincolnview website at www.lincolnview.k12.oh.us.

Parents may complete the form and bring it with them to registration to expedite the registration process. Parents will be given a kindergarten screening appointment at the kindergarten registration. Those who want their child to attend kindergarten at Lincolnview, but live outside the district, should plan to register and attend Lincolnview’s screening. Open enrollment space can be limited.

Those parents can obtain an open enrollment form at registration for the kindergarten class. Applications are considered in the order received. The open enrollment window is April 1 to May 31 for all other grade level students.

Parents should bring their child’s Social Security card, official birth certificate, and immunization records to registration, along with custody papers, if applicable.

Immunizations needed before starting school are: Polio, four doses; DPT (Diphtheria-Pertussis-Tetanus), five doses; MMR (Mumps-Measles-Rubella), two doses; Hepatitis B, two doses; varicella (chicken pox), two doses.

Lincolnview kindergarten screening will be held Tuesday and Wednesday, April 5-6, at First Baptist Church on Jennings Road. Prior registration during the week of March 7 is required.
