Haleyville City Schools kindergarten registration set for March 3

HALEYVILLE - Haleyville City Schools will hold kindergarten registration on Tuesday, March 3, from 8:30 a.m. until 3 p.m. 
Registration will be held at the Haleyville Elementary School library. A child being registered for kindergarten must be 5  years old on or before September 1, 2026 and meet the Haleyville City School Board’s enrollment requirements before he/she can attend school for the 2026-2027 school year. 
Parents or guardians registering prospective kindergarten students are encouraged to bring the following:

• The child’s birth certificate;
• Immunization certificate showing that the child has had all the required immunizations:  D.P.T., polio, measles, and mumps. ALABAMA STATE LAW REQUIRES PROOF OF THE IMMUNIZATIONS BEFORE A CHILD CAN ENTER KINDERGARTEN OR FIRST GRADE;
• Child’s Social Security Card;
• Proof of residency;
• Custody Papers (if applicable);
• Driver’s License of parent/guardian.

A team of kindergarten teachers will be administering the HES Kindergarten Screener to all children who will attend kindergarten in the fall of 2026. Thus, it will be necessary for you to bring your pre-school child with you to registration so they can administer this short screening instrument. The teachers plan to make this a fun experience for the children. Parents and guardians can help by planning to make this a special outing for their preschoolers. 
In an effort to avoid overcrowded conditions and give each child individual attention, Haleyville Elementary asks that you adhere to the following schedule:

LAST NAMES BEGINNING WITH A-L:    8:30-11:30 a.m.;
LAST NAMES BEGINNING WITH M-Z    12 -3 p.m.
    
The staff realizes that some parents and/or guardians work and can only come at certain times. They will adjust our schedule to accommodate working parents.
It is important that all parents or guardians register eligible children on March 3.
Further inquiries can be made by calling Haleyville Elementary School at (205) 486-3405.
