Kindergarten Special Edition

Dear 2025-2026 Kindergarten Families!

If you are a new family, I'd like to be the first to offer an official welcome to the Archer Glen community. If you are a returning family with a newly enrolled younger sibling, we are very happy to continue partnering with you to give your child the best educational experiences we can.

This special edition newsletter is to provide our new and returning families with the information you need to successfully register your soon-to-be Kindergarten student. You are also always welcome to reach out by calling the Archer Glen front office at 503-825-5100 if you have questions.

Please feel free to share this newsletter with any families with a Kindergarten age child who may not have heard about Kindergarten registration. Thank you!

Sarah Woofter

Principal, Archer Glen Elementary

Registration for our incoming Kindergarten class is available online using the link below. Incoming Kindergarten students must turn 5 on or before September 1, 2025. Registering early helps the school and district start planning for the fall.

Online Kindergarten Registration

During online registration, new families will create a Sherwood ParentVUE account. Parents of current and former Sherwood students will log in with their existing ParentVUE account. Please call the Archer Glen front office at 503-825-5100 if you have any questions.

Please note that if you have a current Sherwood School District PreK student, you do not need to complete the registration paperwork. Your child will automatically be enrolled in kindergarten at the conclusion of the PreK school year.

Paper Registration

Families are also welcome to register using paper registration. Paper registration packets can be picked up from the Archer Glen front office.

If you’re enrolling your student or looking to move to Sherwood, you may locate the schools for a home address using our online Boundary Map. Enter your address in the upper left corner to search. Contact Carrie Mower at cmower@sherwood.k12.or.us or 503-825-5012 with boundary questions.

An Open House is planned at each elementary school for families of incoming kindergarten students on Thursday, March 13th, between 4:00 - 6:00 pm. This is a fantastic opportunity to meet teachers, turn in enrollment forms, and learn how to prepare for the transition to elementary school. To guarantee a spot in your preferred session, you can make a reservation by clicking here: Archer Glen Kindergarten Open House Reservations. Only one reservation is needed per family and both parents can attend the session using one reservation. Reservations are not required to attend Kindergarten Open House and drop ins are always welcome.

The school day begins at 7:55 a.m. with doors opening at 7:45 for general arrival. Students eating breakfast at school may arrive as early as 7:30 a.m. The school day ends at 2:15 p.m., with the exception of Wednesdays when school dismisses at 1:15 p.m.
