Register children for kindergarten in April

Kindergarten registration for the 2008-2009 school year will be held at all Walton County elementary schools Monday-Friday, April 7-18, from 8 a.m. until 2:30 p.m. To be eligible to enter kindergarten, a child must be five years of age on or before Sept. 1, 2008.
An official proof of birth is required at the time of registration. Hospital certificates are not official birth records. Parents who do not have their child's birth certificate can obtain a certified copy by making a request to the state in which the child was born. Because this is often a lengthy process, parents needing to obtain a certificate are urged to do so now in order to receive it prior to this registration period. 
Children born in the state of Florida may obtain an official birth certificate at the Walton County Public Health Unit on State Road 83,in DeFuniak Springs. There is a fee of $12.
Before entering school in August, each kindergarten child must have an official birth certificate, social security number, health examination and current immunization record (DOH 680). Parents will need to see their child's health provider for a current exam and immunization update.
Parents wishing to enroll a kindergarten student for Mossy Head Elementary may register at West DeFuniak Elementary, Maude Saunders Elementary or Paxton School during the registration window.
