Inspiring Excellence
Enrollment & Registration
All grades
Welcome! Lake Stevens School District educates students from preschool to 12th-grade (and sometimes beyond) in a variety of programs aimed at making them lifetime learners. To register your child with the district, download and complete the enrollment packet and return it to your neighborhood school (school addresses). During summer months, enrollment packets should be returned to the Educational Services Center, 12309 22nd St NE.
If your child previously attended a private school, or a school outside of the State of Washington, please complete an Authorization to Release Records Form.

You will need the following items to enroll your child:

Ready for Kindergarten!
- Who: All incoming registered kindergarten students
- When: Monday, Aug. 21, 2023 through Wednesday, Aug. 23 from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m.
- Where: At each Lake Stevens Elementary School
This three-day opportunity offers a safe and welcoming introduction to elementary school for families and students, relieving many first-day anxieties (for students and their caregivers!).
Students will become familiar with the school campus, the school staff, and their kindergarten peers before the start of school. Principals will also provide families with an opportunity to meet staff, discuss kindergarten readiness and receive educational support around helping their student transition to kindergarten.
Bus transportation will be provided (if registered prior to the end of July) for families who need it or for those who want their student to practice riding the bus before the first day of school.
Please RSVP to help with our planning and to make sure transportation is set up for your student if needed.
We are looking forward to welcoming your kindergarten student to Ready for Kindergarten and a fantastic first year in elementary school. Welcome aboard!
