COXSACKIE-ATHENS PRE-K REGISTRATION INSTRUCTIONS
2021-2022
Registrations for the 2021-2022 school year are now being accepted for the Universal Pre-Kindergarten (UPK) program for families who reside in the district. A registration form and health certificate can be obtained on the C-A website under the Parents Resources channel bar (click on Registration page ) or at Coxsackie Elementary School, 24 Sunset Blvd, Coxsackie or EJ Arthur Elementary School, 51 Third Street, Athens.
To be eligible for the program, children must live in the district and turn 4 on or before 12/1/21.
For the upcoming school year we plan to provide 1 full day Monday-Friday classroom open to all district students. The classroom will be located at EJ Arthur School in Athens beginning January 31, 2022.
The district will be able to provide transportation, both ways for the full day session. Parents may choose to drop off and or pick-up their student as well.
If you are interested in your child being part of this program, please complete the registration form and required documentation and return it to either of the elementary school offices. In addition to the registration form, the following is required: copy of the child’s birth certificate, immunization record (polio, measles, diphtheria, mumps, rubella, varicella and hepatitis B), two forms of proof of residency, and the health certificate signed by your child’s physician.
Due to limited openings, it may be necessary to randomly select which students will be able to attend the program. Registrations will be accepted in the buildings until 9:00 AM on October 5, 2021, at which time a random selection will be held at the district office, if needed. After all slots are filled, those not selected will be put on a waiting list by the date of receipt of completed registration.
