Forsyth County Schools Announces Kindergarten Registration Dates, Roundup Details

Forsyth County Schools announced a schedule and process for kindergarten registration and a centralized Kindergarten Roundup, a step aimed at streamlining enrollment and helping parents confirm school assignments for the coming year. The district held the announcement on January 21, 2026, and families will be able to register either at a central event or during a designated week at their neighborhood elementary school.

The district will host a centralized Kindergarten Roundup at the Almon C. Hill Educational Center. In addition, each elementary school has a designated week for on-site registration to reduce travel and allow families to complete enrollment at their child’s school. Among the specified windows, Big Creek Elementary School and Brookwood Elementary School are scheduled for January 26-30, while Cumming Elementary School and Daves Creek Elementary School are scheduled for February 9-13. Other elementary schools in the district have assigned weeks across the registration period to distribute appointments and staffing needs.

Forsyth County Schools set a clear document checklist required for registration: a parent or guardian photo ID, proof of residency, the child’s birth certificate, an immunization certificate, and required health exam forms. Families who bring those documents will be able to complete enrollment at either their school’s on-site week or at the centralized Roundup. The district encouraged parents to prepare these materials in advance to speed processing and ensure accurate student records.

For families uncertain about school zoning or which elementary school serves their address, the district advised contacting the school system directly for assistance. District staff will help verify school assignments and schedule appointments as needed. Families may also use the Forsyth County Schools website or call the district office to arrange times and ask questions about documentation or special circumstances.

The registration timetable carries practical implications for Forsyth County operations and families alike. Accurate early enrollment helps district leaders plan staffing, classroom allocations, and bus routes, and it gives parents clarity on where their children will attend school. For families, timely registration preserves preferred placement and ensures students meet health and immunization requirements before classes begin.

Parents and guardians should gather identification, residency verification, and health records now and choose whether to attend their school’s designated week or the Roundup at the Almon C. Hill Educational Center. Completing registration in the district’s outlined window will help schools finalize rosters and prepare for the incoming kindergarten class.
