Pre-Kindergarten and Kindergarten Registration
Gaston County Schools conducting online registration for kindergarten and pre-kindergarten
It’s time for kindergarten and pre-kindergarten registration in Gaston County Schools! Because of the coronavirus pandemic, parents are asked to complete the registration process online.
■ Kindergarten Registration
For kindergarten, a child must be five years old on or before August 31, 2020. Parents should register online: www.gaston.k12.nc.us/ kindergartenregistration
Parents/guardians must provide the following to register for kindergarten:
▪ Birth certificate or proof of parentage
▪ Valid ID of parent/guardian who is registering the child
▪ Two proofs of current address (such as power, water, gas, cable, internet, or landline telephone bills, lease, or mortgage)
▪ An up-to-date immunization/shot record
▪ Health assessment form completed on or after August 26, 2019 by a certified health care professional
Kindergarten registration continues throughout the summer, but parents are encouraged to go ahead and register now, which helps our elementary schools with planning for next year.
■ Pre-Kindergarten Registration
For pre-kindergarten, a child must be four years old on or before August 31, 2020. Parents should register online: www.gaston.k12.nc.us/ prekindergarten
Parents/guardians must provide the following to register for pre-kindergarten:
▪ Birth certificate or proof of parentage

Pre-kindergarten is offered at various school and community locations across Gaston County. Parents are reminded that registering a child for pre-kindergarten does not guarantee that the child will be placed in the program. The district has limited pre-kindergarten space at each location. The deadline to apply for pre-kindergarten is June 15.
