Do you have a rising Kindergartner?

Children must be 5 years old on or before Sept. 30 of the school year to be eligible to attend kindergarten. There are no exceptions to this state requirement.

Step 1: Families must complete the registration process online (click here).

Once the preregistration process is complete, the parent/guardian will receive an email notification that the application has been received.

Step 2: Stephanie Moss, Woolridge register secretary, will then reach out to schedule a time to visit the school on April 9th to complete the final steps of the registration process.

Step 3: On Thursday, April 9th, the parent/ guardian will need the following documents:

  • Picture ID for enrolling parent

  • Child's original birth certificate

  • Proof of residency (closing documents, current rental agreement for a period of at least one year)

  • Two pieces of certified mail.

  • Physical & immunization records. A record of current physical completed within a year of the first day of school and immunizations are required before a child can start school in Virginia. http://vdh.virginia.gov/immunization/requirements/

If you are unable to attend kindergarten registration day, please reach out to Stephanie Moss at stephanie_moss@ccpsnet.net to set up an alternate time to complete the registration.

Welcome back CCPS!

It's our first week of school for the 2025-26 school year. We're excited to welcome you and 64,000 students back to classes.

  • Grades 1-5, 6 and 9 begin Monday, Aug. 18

  • Grades 7-8, 10-12 begin Tuesday, Aug. 19

  • Prekindergarten and kindergarten students start on different days:

    • Some students attend Aug. 18-19; others attend Aug. 20-21. 

    • Schools assign students to specific days to allow students to become more familiar with their new surroundings in a smaller classroom setting.

    • Starting Aug. 22, all prekindergarten and kindergarten students attend daily.

Make sure to check our calendars page for important dates.

Families can visit the CCPS back-to-school hub for  transportation information, Chromebook details, fee payments, supply lists and more. 

Have a student who is ready to start school? Families can still register their little ones for kindergarten.

We hope you have a great first week and a wonderful school year!
