My child is new to the district in 2025-2026

If your child will be new to the district in 2025-2026, please begin the process by completing the registration form.

This includes all students starting kindergarten in the upcoming school year, even if your family already has children enrolled in the district — unless your child is currently in our Early Childhood Program, in which case they are considered a returning student.

I am interested in the dual language program for my child

Dual language enrollment for the 2025-2026 school year is now closed, as the school year is already underway.

Information about enrollment for the 2026-2027 school year will be shared in early 2026. Families with children entering kindergarten will be able to indicate their interest in dual language when completing the registration form. Families with children entering first grade may also be eligible to join the program, depending on overall enrollment.

Please note that new dual language applicants may be placed on a waiting list if space is unavailable.

Learn more about the dual language program and enrollment process. For more information, you can contact Enrique Castro, director of multilingual learners, at ecastro@nssd112.org.

Early Childhood (Preschool) Screening and Registration

The Early Childhood program is located at Oak Terrace Elementary School. Learn more about our Early Childhood program. Please note that the Early Childhood Program offers rolling enrollment, meaning your child may become eligible as soon as they turn three.

Is your child new to the Early Childhood program? Please apply for a screener and make sure to select New Pre-K Screening. Preschool families who already submitted a screener application will be notified by our Early Childhood program with details about how to complete registration.

Is your child a returning student? Log into the Parent Portal to register. Then click on More, then Registration.

Health Requirements
