On-line Registration for The FalL 2025 school year is open
 

HOW:  You may register your child with Greenwich Public Schools in one of two ways.  Either:

or

2)  bring the completed GPS Registration Package (English) (Español) and supporting documents to the school, including

  • Child's birth certificate
  • Immunization record
  • Two forms of proof of residency

Please call your school to make an appointment to bring your registration package in. 

WHERE:  Unsure which is your neighborhood school?  check GPS School Finder

WHO: Any resident student who is new to Greenwich Public Schools must complete registration.  If your resident student already attends GPS and is moving to Middle or High school, no new registration is required.

To enroll in kindergarten, a child must have reached the age of 5 on or before September 1 of his/her kindergarten year.   If your child will be 5 by December 31, you are  welcome to register for Kindergarten but should contact the school principal to discuss Kindergarten Readiness. 

  • If your child will be 5 by December 31, you are  welcome to register for Kindergarten but should contact the school principal to the information provided by your preschool and discuss Kindergarten Readiness.  If you have any concerns or questions about enrolling your child, please talk to your building principal.  

    Please keep in mind that the Connecticut legislature could make changes to the age requirements in the coming months including delaying implementation or changing the birthdate requirements.
     

  • Although age 5 is the compulsory age for students to enter kindergarten, parents may choose to have their child wait until age 6, but they must sign the Acknowledgment of Option to Exempt Attendance form at the elementary school the child is districted for. They may decide again, when their child is 6, to have the child home for another year. By age 7, the child must attend school or be schooled at home.


QUESTIONS?
