East Maine District 63 2021-2022 Kindergarten Registration Open
Families of new kindergarteners - and those new to D63 entering grades 1-8 - can now register online.

Residents of East Maine School District 63: will your child be five years old on or before September 1, 2021? If so, it’s time to register for full-day kindergarten! Registration for the 2021-2022 school year is now open online; visit the District website.
Parents will begin by finding their child’s new school on a school locator - Apollo, Mark Twain, Melzer, Nelson, or Washington - and then will proceed with the registration process. Required documents - a birth certificate, proof of District residency, and completed health information forms – will be scanned in and uploaded. Details about how to submit forms, what to do if you are unable to scan and upload, and how to locate your child’s school are provided once parents begin the registration process. Questions? Email district411@emsd63.org.
This year for the first time, new students entering grades 1-8 during the 2021-2022 school year may also register online.
