| WHAT
YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT REGISTERING YOUR CHILD |
| Students
enrolling at a new school, or children starting the seventh grade this
fall, need to be prepared to meet a few requirements when registering: |
• |
Kindergartners
must be 5 years old on or before Sept. 1, and should bring proof, such
as a birth certificate or baptism certificate. First-graders must be 6
years old on or before the same date. |
• |
Any
student enrolling at a school for the first time must have proof of the
following immunizations: DTP (diphtheria, tetanus, pertussis), five doses;
polio, four doses; measles, two doses; and kindergartners must have hepatitis
B, three doses. |
All
seventh-graders, including returning students, must have proof of the following
immunizations: Hepatitis B, three doses;
measles vaccine, a second dose; and a tetanus-diphtheria booster. All
these shots are available free of charge at county health departments.
|
• |
Students
enrolling in Florida schools for the first time are required to have physical
exams, performed within a year of starting school, or within 30 days of
enrolling at a school. Kindergartners must have proof of a completed exam
prior to registration. |
• |
All
transfer students must bring with them a previous report card or withdrawal
form from their school. Verification of parent or guardian residence is
required. |
They
also must meet all other immunization and age requirements. |
• |
Foreign students must meet U.S. Immigration requirements before being allowed
to enroll in a public school. Requirements instituted in November 1997
require students with an F-1 Immigration status to pay to attend public
schools. Brevard County foreign students can call 321-633-1000, ext.
272 |
• |
Parents of children who are being taught in a home school environment must
send a letter to the public school superintendent stating: They are
teaching their child at home, the child's full legal name and date
of birth, and the parent or guardian's residential address. |

of Student Services in Brevard County at 321-631-1911.
