Your child must be four years old by August 15, 2021, to be eligible for the program. If you are interested, please bring the following information with you the day of registration:
Child's Certified Birth Certificate (not the mother's copy)
Child's Social Security number
Proof of income for ALL adults in the household
Child's most current physical and shot record (TN shot form)
Proof of residency (utility bill or lease)
Please remember, applying for the Pre-K program does not automatically enroll your child. Notification letters will be mailed at a later date.
Please bring your child to registration if possible. Vision, speech, and hearing screenings will be conducted.
Kindergarten Registration: Registration for kindergarten for the 2021-2022 school year will take place on Thursday, April 29, from 8:30 a.m. – 2:00 p.m. at Holice Powell School.
A child must be 5 years old on or before August 15, 2021, to attend kindergarten during the 2021-2022 school year.
Parents may pick up registration packets at their child’s school prior to the registration day. Included in this packet will be
• an explanation of requirements for enrollment
• registration form
The registration forms will also be available at dyercs.net and can be completed and submitted online, but parents must go to the school to turn in all other required documents.
On registration day, parents bring the following:
• child’s birth certificate
• child’s social security number
• certification of immunization (if you have physical and immunization record already completed)
State law requires that all children have a physical examination and proof of immunizations before entering school. You may register your child without the immunization record and physical, but you must have them both before school begins on August 3, 2021.
TCAP testing is April 21-28 for grades 3-5 and April 28-May 5 for second grade. This is mandatory in person testing. Please do not schedule appointments for your child on these days.
