    Step 4: Enroll Online for 2021-22 Kindergarten at Grand Blanc Schools!

    Online registration is NOW OPEN!

    In addition to filling out your student and family's information and emergency contact information, you can also upload the documents we need digitally through the registration portal. If you experience difficulty, make an appointment to drop them off at your building at a later time. 

    The documents we will need by the start of school are: 

    • Child's Original/Certified Birth Certificate. If your child was not born in the United States, a valid passport is acceptable.
    • Proof of vision screening, completed after age 3; submit a statement from examining official. Michigan Law requires a vision screening for kindergarten entrance. Vision screening done in preschool by a health department technician or at a doctor’s office fulfills this requirement. Your child's pediatrician may have screened your child at a well-child visit, so that office is a great place to start. Click here for Genesee County Health Department information.
    • Parent/Guardian Identification (valid driver's license or picture identification card with district address.)
    • Official Immunization Record (use Immunization Checklist or submit a copy of the official record.)
    • Certified Copy of Appointment of Guardianship (if applicable.)

  • Brigance Testing

    Don't forget to sign your child up for a "Brigance" screening test. This test screens kindergarten-age-appropriate skills such as motor skills, letter and color identification, language/speech skills, problem-solving, identification of objects, etc. The test is done at one of our buildings by our own staff members. The results are used to assist teachers in knowing where your child is at to begin the year. The dates/times/locations are available in your Virtual Packet Information.
