Kindergarten registration for the 2026-2027 school year is now open.

The state of Ohio has changed the law regarding kindergarten eligibility. Each year, the eligibility date will be the first day of kindergarten classes. For the 2026–2027 school year, students must be 5 years old on or before August 26, 2026, to be eligible for kindergarten.

Please complete the enrollment process by visiting the Vermilion Local Schools Enrollment & Registration webpage.

Kindergarten screening will be held at Vermilion Elementary School in August. Once your child’s enrollment is complete, parents or guardians will receive an email later this spring with information on how to sign up.

***Students currently enrolled in Little Anchors Preschool at Vermilion Elementary School do not need to register; your child will be automatically enrolled. You will receive an email in the spring to schedule a screening appointment and another in the summer to complete your child’s information update.
