New Student Registration Information

Office staff from your child’s home school will contact you to set up an office visit.

Upon completion of the online pre-enrollment form, you will receive a phone call from your school of residence to schedule a time for you to bring in the required information including:

Proof of Birth – Original birth certificate, passport, or baptismal certificate, physician statement of birth, passport showing age or other valid proof of birth.

Proof of Residence: One of the following documents, current and dated within the last 30 days is acceptable:

• Utility service (electric, gas, water) contract, statement, or payment receipts
• Voter Registration
• Pay Stub
• Correspondence from a government agency
• Notarized declaration of residency executed by the parent or legal guardian of a student

At this office visit, you will need to bring the following information (originals): 

a) Proof of birth date: Proof must be provided before the child may be admitted. One of the following documents is acceptable: original birth certificate, recorder sworn transcript, baptismal certificate, physician statement of birth, passport showing age or other valid proof of birth.

b) Proof of Residence: One of the following documents, current and dated within the last 30 days is acceptable:

c) Immunization Records: Records must be originals, stamped by the doctor's office. The school will make a copy to keep on file, with originals returned to the parent. Parents/guardians must present proof that immunizations required by California law have been completed before registration can be finalized. Visit Immunizations for School for information on required immunizations and the process for a medical exemption. 

d) Physical Exam Requirement for Kindergarten Students: All children need a health check-up before enrollment in kindergarten. California law requires children have a physical exam (health check-up) by first grade. Savanna School District requires the physical exam be completed before kindergarten entry and it will be one of the items requested as part of the enrollment process. The physical exam may be free to those who qualify through the CHDP (Child Health and Disability Prevention) program. For information call 1-800-564-8448. Parents/guardians who do not wish to obtain a physical examination for their child must sign a waiver. Click here to download a copy of the form. Click here for a copy of the waiver form

e) Oral Health Assessment for Transitional Kindergarten or Kindergarten Students
California law (Education Code Section 49452.8) requires that students entering the first year of public school have a dental check-up. Any dental examination completed up to 12 months before the start of transitional kindergarten or kindergarten (whichever is the first year of public school) will also meet this requirement. The Oral Health Assessment form should be turned into the school as soon as possible. Parents/guardians who do not wish to obtain the oral health exam for their child must sign the waiver that is available from our district nurse. Click here to download a copy of the form

After your meeting with the school staff, you will be directed to go back online to complete the AIR New Student Registration Form (below).  If your child will be entering Transitional Kindergarten or Kindergarten, you will receive an email with information about Kindergarten Orientation that will be held at your child’s new school the week prior to the first day of school.
