🐝Herndon ES Kindergarten Registration Open
2025-26 School Year
Registering your child early helps schools prepare and ensure they have the necessary teachers and resources in place on the first day of school. A child may enter kindergarten for this coming school year if he or she turns five on or before September 30, 2025.
If you have not registered your child, we are scheduling appointments for all rising kindergartners. We have Spanish translators in the office and can arrange for other languages as well. Please contact Shermin Sirajudin, our Student Information Assistant, by email at ssirajudin@fcps.edu or by phone at 703-326-3100.
