Register schoolkids before Dec. 21!

November 26, 2012

Here's an important tip for parents of kids entering school in September 2013 - be sure to do it before Dec. 21st!As long as a child is registered for a school before this date, he or she cannot be denied a placement in the school. However, if a child registers AFTER Dec 21 (even if they move into a house across the street from the school), the North Vancouver School District can redirect them to another school that has more open spaces.Here are some other quick facts for new scholars:A parent/guardian can register their child for kindergarten if, on or before December 31st of that school year that child will have reached the age of five years. For example, for the 2013-2014 school year, the student must turn five prior to December 31, 2013.Here's where to register:Central Registration Office 2121 Lonsdale Avenue, North Vancouver 604-903-3368 Hours of operation: 8:30 a.m. - 4:30 p.m. (Mon to Fri)When to register:Nov. 5 to Dec. 21, 2012What to bring:* Completed registration form (available at www.nvsd44.bc.ca) * Proof of age and legal name (birth certificate or passport) * Proof of residence (BC Hydro bill, purchase agreement, or tenancy agreement) * If not born in Canada - Passport and Permanent Residence card or Canadian Citizenship cardPlease bring original documents. Staff at the Central Registration office will make copies. All registration forms and related documents must be submitted in person to the Central Registration office.Thanks, Cindy Lanctot, for all the info!
