Kindergarten registration

Children 5 years old on or before Oct. 15 may register for kindergarten at Raymond Elementary School. Register online at rsu14.org. The RSU 14 website includes resources on home language information, immunization policy, and RSU 14 transportation information. Once registered, make an appointment for the screening at 655-8672. During the screening process, parents will meet with some of the kindergarten staff and the children will work with an adult. Due to COVID-19, dates for screening have been moved to this summer and will be announced once determined. Also, online is a video made by Ms. Cummings’ second grade class that gives incoming students a sneak peek of what the screening day will look like when they arrive.
