Kindergarten Registration Coming Soon
Hilliard City School District will begin Kindergarten Registration on January 12, 2026 for the 2026-27 school year. Due to a recent change in Ohio law, school districts must now use a uniform age-eligibility cutoff for kindergarten enrollment. If your child will be five years of age on or before August 19, 2026, the first day of school for the 2026–2027 school year, they are eligible to start kindergarten that year. This replaces the previous September 30 cutoff.
Parents can access the
registration website (on or after January 12, 2026) to complete online registration. Once you have completed the registration process and provided all required documentation, you will be given access to schedule your child’s kindergarten screening appointment for August. Please don’t delay.
Streamlining ParentSquare Notifications
We’re updating how you receive post notifications from our school. If you use the ParentSquare app and have both app and text notifications enabled, posts will now be delivered through the app first, with text messages sent only as a backup. This reduces duplicate notifications and makes it easier to keep track of updates.
Direct Messages and time-sensitive alerts will continue to be delivered through your preferred methods.
No action is required. If you haven’t downloaded the ParentSquare app or turned-on app notifications, we encourage you to do so.
