The Transitional Kindergarten program is a two-year program (year 1: Transitional Kindergarten and year 2: Kindergarten). Students born in this window are NOT eligible for Kindergarten. Kindergarten To be eligible to register for kindergarten for the 2024-2025 school year, a child must turn five (5) years of age on or before September 1, 2024.
What do I need to do to get ready to register and enroll my child?
Please note that only a parent or legal guardian may register a child for school. If you are currently the physical custodian of a child or a foster parent, please contact Student Services and School Attendance at (559) 327-9200 to make an appointment to be approved/recognized as the child’s caregiver. Appointments should be made prior to the registration process. Parents/Guardians/Caregivers should review their child’s immunization records. Make sure that you have an up to date copy of all of the immunizations your child has received. For a list of immunizations required, please click here. If you are interested in attending a different school, other than your resident (home) school, transfer applications will be available after your register for your resident school. All students interested in transferring schools, must be registered at their resident (home) school prior to applying for a transfer. Clovis Unified School District accepts 2023-2024 Interdistrict Transfer applications for those that wish to leave Clovis Unified beginning on Wednesday, March 1, 2023.
Parents/Guardians/Caregivers should first confirm the school that aligns to their home dwelling address so they register at the correct school. To find out what school you should register for, please utilize the CUSD mapping program “What School Should My Child Attend”.
If you are living outside of the Clovis Unified School District attendance boundaries, you will need to apply for a transfer prior to registering at any Clovis Unified School District school. There are two types of transfers available for out of district residents.
The first type of transfer is for families that have a parent/legal guardian that is employed for more than 10 hours per week at a business or own a business within the CUSD attendance boundaries. Please check your employment address by utilizing the mapping program “What School Should My Child Attend”. Applications for Employment Based Residency Transfers are available here or at Student Services and School Attendance located at 1465 David E. Cook Way, Clovis, 93611. Applications require a recent paycheck stub and supervisor’s signature, or a valid business license and a recent lease agreement for office space within the district’s boundaries. All Applications should be turned in to Student Services and School Attendance beginning on March 1, 2023. This option is not available for Sierra Unified School District residents. Sierra Unified School District residents must begin the request for employment based enrollment by contacting Sierra Unified School District for an Interdistrict Transfer.
The second type of transfer is for families that live and work outside of the CUSD attendance boundaries. An Interdistrict Transfer application starts at the school district of residency (Example: Fresno Unified, Central Unified, Sanger Unified, and Sierra Unified). Parents/Guardians must contact their home school district to begin this process. It is recommended that parents/guardians begin this process as soon as possible as these types of transfers take time to process with two school districts involved.
How do I register my child?
The registration process for students entering grades TK through 12th grade includes two steps. FIRST STEP: The first step is for Parents/Guardians/Caregivers to complete online pre-registration. The online pre-registration asks parents a series of required basic demographic questions about their child. To prepare to complete the pre-registration process, please read "What do I need to get ready to register and enroll my child?" SECOND STEP: The second step is to provide required enrollment documents. These documents can be attached during the online pre-registration process if the parent has scanned the documents and saved them as a PDF so they are ready to attach. The other way to provide those documents is to deliver the documents to the school site in person. Elementary school sites will accept transitional kindergarten and kindergarten documents for the 2023-24 school year beginning on March 1, 2023. For students entering first through twelfth grade, school sites will accept documents for the 2023-24 school year beginning on March 8, 2023. Registration is not considered to be completed until both the online pre-registration process is complete, and the required documents are turned in to the school. Once completed, the online pre-registration application will be dated and time stamped. The date and time stamp is important because many sites use the information to determine a variety of different processes. A list of required documents can be found in the section "What documents do I need to provide to complete the registration process?"

Parents/Guardians/Caregivers will need to bring the following to their resident school site during the school year or Student Services and School Attendance during summer months: 1.
