There are Two Steps to the Registration Process
Step 1: Online Registration:
- Please note that our InfoSnap Online Registration System now includes a language translator for the convenience of those who require it.
- Create an account and answer the online questionnaire.
- The school you are registering for depends upon where you live in Mount Laurel. This webpage shows you how our geographic sending areas are bordered by major roadways within Mount Laurel. If you have difficulty identifying your school based on where you live, contact our Office of Communication Services at 856-235-3387, extension 1.
- In some cases, your response to a question may cause a new window or form to "pop up" for you to provide clarification, answer questions or print-out something you may need to have in-hand.
- If possible, upload the important documents listed at the end of the form, but please know that if you upload these files, you must still bring an original copy of your child's birth certificate in person to be verified. That is Step 2 of the process.
- At the "Sign and Review" screen, review your information and provide an electronic signature.
- Submit your child's registration to Kindergarten!
Step 2: Verify Documents
Call 856-235-3387, extension 1525 to make an appointment before you come to minimize wait times for your files to be verified. This process does not take long if you have completed the online registration.
These documents must be verified in person:
An original birth certificate with parents' names and raised seal.
The following documents may be uploaded through our online portal, however, if you have not done that, they must be presented in person to complete the registration process:
Three proofs of residency, one of which may be a copy of settlement papers, agreement of sale or lease, plus two utility bills.
Proof of immunization according to New Jersey Department of Health guidelines.
A physical examination is required for all kindergarten students. This form should be completed as soon as possible if not available at time of verification.
Please Note: We recognize that with insurance and other factors, well-visits to pediatricians are generally scheduled only once a year. We allow time for pending visits and immunizations that fit that timeframe.
