If you have a child who will be 5 years old by August 31, it’s time to register them for Kindergarten for the 2025-26 school year.

There are many options for kindergarten students. The traditional option is your neighborhood school, which offers your child the opportunity to go to school near their home and with the children that live near them.

We also offer dual-language programs in Spanish and Mandarin within some of our neighborhood schools, as well as several Choice schools:

Please join us at an upcoming elementary school open house event to visit our schools and learn more about our programs. Events will be held at each VPS Elementary school starting March 3 through May. For more details, head to our VPS  Elementary Options page.
