LENOIR, NC (February 5, 2021) — The school district invites all children who will turn 5 years old on or before August 31, 2021 to register for kindergarten!
The registration process is online at caldwellschools.com. Parents are encouraged to enroll their rising kinders early to accept a seat in the school of their choice. If parents would like to transfer from their enrollment district to another elementary school, the transfer request window is open until Feb. 28, 2021.
To register online for kindergarten there are three basic steps:
- Go to caldwellschools.com and click on enrollment.
- Create an account and enroll.
- Twenty-four hours later, log back into the account and select your child’s seat.
Other required forms and documents may be loaded into the student’s account prior to school starting.
