Registration forms for Discovery and Moorefield Station can be picked up at any LCPS elementary school or downloaded here.

To attend kindergarten in Loudoun County Public Schools, a child must turn 5 years old on or before Sept. 30, 2013. Compulsory attendance is required of all children who are five on or before September 30, 2013, unless a parent or guardian notifies the School Board that the child will not attend school until the following year. School office staff can give you information about making such a request.

What to Bring

The following items will be required on registration day:

• The original or certified copy of your child’s birth certificate or a notarized affidavit.
• Pupil Registration Form (included in registration packet).
• Kindergarten Transportation Form (included in registration packet).
• Proof of Residency (a signed deed, current lease agreement, or mortgage statement).
• A parent/guardian photo ID.
• Legal custody papers if applicable.

Parents should provide the completed registration form with a new physical to the school no later than August 20.

For students whose birthday/physical date falls between Aug. 20 and Sept. 3, parents should provide a four-year physical and appointment verification that a new physical is scheduled between Aug. 20 and Sept. 3. Those children without the physical can still be registered April 16, they will not be able to attend school without a new physical.

Since a child will not be allowed to begin kindergarten without a new physical, they could lose their spot if a school is on overflow and a valid physical is not presented by the first day of school.

If this information is not provided to the school by Aug. 20 and a kindergarten overflow list exists, your child will be placed on the overflow list and a child with a complete registration and physical will fill the vacated spot.
