Children who will be five years old on or before Dec. 1 of the upcoming year are eligible to attend kindergarten for the new school year at Fairport Central School District. The District is encouraging families to enter their preschool-age child in the census prior to kindergarten registration. The District will then initiate the online kindergarten registration process by sending all anticipated kindergarten parents/guardians a registration link. Kindergarten registration will be open February 1 through April 1 each year; however, we encourage families to complete the process in a timely manner.

All daycare transportation requests must be returned to the Transportation Office no later than April 1 each year. The address is 860 Ayrault Road, Fairport, NY 14450. If you are unsure of your daycare needs, you may indicate that on the transportation form, but it still needs to be turned in by the April 1 deadline. If you do not have access to technology, you may stop by the Registration Office at 10 Baumer Place, Fairport, NY 14450 and we would be happy to support you.

Parents retain the right to choose to homeschool their child(ren). Families wishing to homeschool their children are required by New York State Education Department to adhere to the NYS Part 100.10 Regulations. Families are to follow these Commissioner’s Regulations for grades 1-12, and kindergarten subject areas are at the parent/guardian’s discretion. Families are required to submit a yearly plan after receiving acknowledgement of their Letter of Intent to homeschool. Families are also required to submit quarterly progress reports documenting the student’s progress over the quarter. If a child returns to the District after homeschooling, it is up to the principal’s discretion what, if any, credit will be granted for coursework completed in homeschooling. Students who are homeschooled do not receive a diploma. A Letter of Completion would be awarded if all NYS Part 100.10 requirements are met.
