School Registration

Welcome to Wallingford Public Schools!

 

Wallingford Public Schools uses electronic registration for all new students entering Kindergarten through Grade 12.

Please click on the following link to begin the registration process. 

Registration is now open for the current school year and next school year 2025/2026 for  Kindergarten through Grade 12 only. If your child is already enrolled in Wallingford Public Schools Preschool, you do NOT need to register for Kindergarten. 

Preschool families will be notified in March regarding their child's spot in the preschool.  Families will be notified of the registration process at that time. Please do not register for preschool. The submission will not be approved. 

*Please note due to recent legistlative changes in the State of Connecticut, that a child is to be five years old on or before 9/1/25 in order to register for Kindergarten. If your child will be five on or before 9/1/25 you may use the link below. If your child will not be five until 9/2/25 or later, please use THIS LINK if you would like to have them screened for possible early admission to Kindergarten for the 25/26 school year.
