Kindergarten Registration, Open Enrollment Begins in January



Open Enrollment:

Parents wishing to enroll children in a Douglas County School District school, other than a designated neighborhood school, must complete an open enrollment form.

Open enrollment forms can be downloaded from the district website at www.dcsdk12.org and parents can view a list of the schools available for open enrollment for the 2009-2010 school year. Forms must be completed and returned to the desired open enrollment school between December 1, 2009 and January 15, 2010.

Per Douglas County School District policy, a child may enter kindergarten if he/she is five years old on or before October 1 of the year of enrollment, and enroll in the first grade if he/she is six years old on or before October 1 of the year of enrollment.

Schools of Choice:

American Academy Charter School:

American Academy Intent to Enroll forms for the 2009 – 2010 school year will be accepted through midnight on January 31, 2009. Visit www.americanacademyk8.org to download a form. The Intent to Enroll form places the student’s name in American Academy’s lottery, but does not guarantee a spot at the school. American Academy will conduct the lottery on February 1, 2009. (Students who reside in the city of Castle Pines North will receive a higher weight in the lottery.) For more information, visit the school’s website.
