The following documents are needed for enrollment in the pre-kinder or kinder program: for proof of residency, the latest utility bills such as water, gas, electricity, or rental receipts, proof of income, official birth certificate and Social Security number of the child, and the child’s current immunization records.
Also, families presently residing with a relative must present the required notarized LISD “Host Family Form” along with a copy of a valid driver’s license or a valid picture ID card of both the host and the parent/legal guardian. If a child is residing with an adult other than the parent, the parent and the sponsoring adult must complete the notarized LISD “Power of Attorney Form” along with a copy of a valid driver’s license or a valid picture ID card of both the parent and the sponsoring adult.
School nurses will be available to check the student immunization records to determine if any further vaccinations are necessary. The nurse will administer a questionnaire to parents in order to determine if a TB skin test is necessary.
