Dear Ross Valley Families,

Welcome to the Ross Valley School District!  We are pleased you have chosen Ross Valley to provide your child/ren’s education.

If you have a child currently attending school in the Ross Valley School District, there is no need to re-register him/her.  Only students who are not currently attending a school in the District are required to register.

School Office Hours

School Offices are open Monday through Friday (except holidays) from 8:00am-4: 00 pm through Friday, June 21, 2019.

Because office staff may be attending meetings, please contact the school office to ensure someone will be there to assist you.

 
Kindergarten Eligibility & Preview Nights for the 2019-20 School Year

For the 2019-20 school year, a child must have his/her 5th birthday on or before September 1, 2019, to be eligible to attend Kindergarten.

Students currently attending Transitional Kindergarten in Ross Valley do not need to re-register.

Preview Nights will be held at each elementary school site.  Preview Night is an informational evening designed for parents/guardians (no children, please) to learn about the Kindergarten program and to get an overview of the total school program.  We look forward to seeing you there!

Transitional Kindergarten (TK) Eligibility & Preview Night for the 2019-20 School Year

For the 2019-20 school year, a child must have his/her 5th birthday between September 2 and December 2, 2019, to be eligible to attend Transitional Kindergarten.

Information on Transitional Kindergarten will be presented at a Preview Night scheduled on Thursday, January 31, 2019, from 6:30-7: 30 pm in the Brookside School Library.  The TK program is still under development for the 2019-20 school year; program implementation (including location/s) will depend on the number of students who enroll.  Completing registration will give us a way to contact you as we determine program implementation.

New Students to TK – 8th Grades Registration Process

Our registration process includes online as well as hard copy and in-person components.

In continuing our efforts to reduce paper consumption and to be service oriented and efficient, we use SchoolMint, an online enrollment system.  SchoolMint helps to reduce the time parents/guardians spend completing required school forms for one or more children and can be accessed via a computer or smartphone.  For parents/guardians who do not have computer, online, or smartphone access, technology is available at the school sites.  Because not all required registration items can be provided via SchoolMint, some of the registration process will continue to be required via hard copy and in person at the student’s school of residence.  For parents/guardians who do not have printer access, hard copies are available at the school sites.

To assist the District in enrollment, staffing, and facilities planning, please complete the registration process by March 1 or as soon as possible.  Because many elementary grade levels and schools in the Ross Valley School District are impacted, if more students register at their school of residence than can be accommodated, even if by March 1, students may be assigned to another district school where space is available.  Any reassignments will be determined prior to the student’s first day of attendance.

Online Registration begins Friday, January 25, 2019, and In-Person Registration begins Monday, February 4, 2019.  We do not accept registration items via fax, mail, or email.  Please note that only completed registration packets are accepted and each is date/time stamped.  A completed registration packet includes the online Student Registration Forms on SchoolMint and the In-Person Forms and Documentation.
