Kindergarten Registration
Do you know a child who will be five years old on or before Aug. 31? Maybe it's your neighbor, friend or even your own child. Now’s the time to enroll kindergarten students for the 2023-24 school year. The sooner you enroll, the better we can keep you informed.
Kindergarten kickoff video
To learn more about kindergarten in the Sumner-Bonney Lake School District, watch this video for an overview of kindergarten, the registration process and forms, resources, transition events and kindergarten readiness.
School orientations
To help welcome new kinders and their families, each of our elementary schools will host a Kindergarten Roundup. Prior to kinder screening, Roundup provides students/families an opportunity to physically tour school and meet important people as well as get pertinent information regarding registration. Find the date and time for each school’s orientation.
New immunization requirements
New requirements are in effect for students in preschool and kindergarten who are four years old or older on Sept. 1. Learn about the requirements, documentation, exceptions and more.

A Note from the Health Room
With colds going around, and spring allergies getting ready to start, we understand that students may experience sore throats. We would like to remind parents that most cough drops are considered medication, and are not allowed at school without a doctor's order. Cough drops that contain menthol or other active ingredients are not allowed.
Please contact the Health Room at 253-891-4458 if you have any questions.
