Kindergarten Registration for the 2026-2027 School Year
Registration for Fall 2026 Kindergarten entry is open NOW!
All Connecticut districts have a new age requirement for the incoming Kindergarten class. Effective in the fall of 2024, children need to turn five on or before September 1 of the school year to be eligible to enroll in public school Kindergarten. This is a change from the previous Kindergarten enrollment birthdate cutoff of January 1.
For the 2026-2027 School Year, school districts can admit a child who has not turned five by September 1 of the school year if (1) the parent/guardian makes a request in writing and (2) the school district conducts an assessment of the child to ensure that admitting such child is developmentally appropriate.
The Connecticut State Department of Education (CSDE) and the Office of Early Childhood (OEC) have issued a joint memo on this recently enacted change by the Connecticut General Assembly. The joint memo is available in English here and in Spanish here.
