Enrollment Age Requirements

A recently enacted Michigan law amended the Revised School Code (MCL380.1147), which changed the minimum age requirement for a child enrolling in kindergarten. Children must turn 5 years of age on or before September 1, in order to register for kindergarten; and must be 5 years of age on or before December 1 to enroll in our Young 5s program.
