Open Enrollment, Kindergarten, PreSchool – Important Information

If your student is currently at Hygiene in Kinder through 4th, you DO NOT need to do anything in the way of registration. Your student is automatically enrolled in a class for next year!! No further action is required!!

The open enrollment window for the 2024-2025 school year will be available beginning Friday, December 1, 2023 through Friday, December 15, 2023
Open enrollment is only for Kinder – 12th grade students that live outside the attendance area of the school you wish to enroll your student into.  Families can use this link to identify the neighborhood schools associated with their address.  If Hygiene Elementary is NOT listed as your neighborhood school, you will need to complete an Open Enrollment request.  Please know that if you submit a registration before December 1st, 2023 it will show up as a request to register for the current school year (2023-2024) and not for the next year (2024-2025).  This will result in families having to register a second time for the next school year.  This link will provide you with a step-by-step guide of what to expect if you plan to open enroll your student(s).  

Note: This information is only applicable to grades K-12 

St. Vrain Valley School District offers free full-day kindergarten at every elementary school.  For the 2024-2025 school year, kindergarten applications will be accepted between December 1-15, 2023. 
Students must turn 5 on or before Oct. 1, 2024 to enter kindergarten.  

**Please note, even if your child attended preschool at our school, he/she will still need to be enrolled into Kindergarten with an Open Enrollment Request or a New Student Registration Request. 

Open Enrollment Requests:
Families can use this link to identify the neighborhood schools associated with their address.  If Hygiene Elementary is NOT listed as your neighborhood school, you will need to complete an Open Enrollment request which can be found here

New Student Registration:
If Hygiene Elementary is listed as your neighborhood school, you will fill out a New Student Registration form which you can find here.  

Here is the link for more information and to enroll your child into Kindergarten.

If you submit a registration before December 1st, it will show up as a request to register for the current school year (2023-2024), not for next year (2024-2025).  This will result in families having to register a second time for the next school year.  

PreSchool – Pre-Registration

2024-2025 Fall Preschool Pre-Registration Begins December 1st 2023

To better serve families and to support a more timely student preschool placement, St. Vrain’s Department of Early Childhood Education is offering families the opportunity to complete the district’s online pre-registration process prior to the state’s Universal Preschool (UPK) application. Families that pre-register in December will receive a notification of their placement from St. Vrain Valley Schools by the end of January, 2024. Pre-registered families will receive ongoing support and communication from St. Vrain Valley Schools if they choose to navigate the UPK process.
