Calling all future Trailblazers! Kindergarten enrollment for the 2024-25 school year is open! Do you know a child who will be five years old on or before August 31? Maybe it's your neighbor, friend or even your own child. Now’s the right time to enroll next year’s kindergarten students. The sooner you enroll, the better we can keep you informed. Get information on what documents you need and how to enroll -- the process is all online at sumnersd.org/register.

To help welcome our new kinders and their families, each of our elementary schools created virtual tours, which includes a school tour and staff introduction. Watch each schools' video here.

Ready to start the kindergarten registration process? Visit our Enrollment page for details on the three-step registration process.

Immunizations

New requirements are in effect for students in preschool or kindergarten who are four years old or older on Sept. 1.

Washington state's school immunization law requires documentation of immunization at the time of school registration. A Certificate of Immunization Status (CIS), signed by the parent/guardian, must be on file at the school on or before the student's first day of school. Learn more about immunizations.
