Registration
Central Registration Office:
For your convenience, we offer centralized registration. You can receive the necessary forms to register your child via mail, email, or fax. You can also make arrangements to receive them in person at the District Office. Fill the packet out at home, and return it with the necessary documentation to the District office. If you need any photocopies of your registration documents made, they are available upon request.
ENROLLMENT
To enroll your children, you must complete one registration packet per child. If you are enrolling your child in either the Pre-K program and/or Kindergarten, there are separate packets for each level that are different than the enrollment packet. Please refer to the applicable file for each (Universal Pre-K enrollment packet or Kindergarten packet). [Additionally, you will also need to download the coverlet pages (or, "wraparound") for each respective packet.]
REQUIRED DOCUMENTS Please plan ahead- the following documents are REQUIRED for each student being enrolled:
Birth Certificate (and/or other satisfactory documents [refer to page 5 of the basic enrollment packet for list of acceptable documents]) - It is NOT necessary to provide a social security card if your student(s) is in elementary and/or middle school. If may be required at the high school level.
DSS-2999 Form if in foster care.
Immunization Record
Custody Decree bearing a judge's signature, if parents are divorced OR if the student resides with someone other than the biological parent (i.e., aunt/uncle/grandparents, other family members, etc.).
Proof of Residency (upon request District officials may ask you to furnish verification that the address listed on enrollment forms is your actual place of residence). It is always a good idea to bring along proof at the time of enrollment.
PRE-K REGISTRATION
We are accepting Pre-K registration packets for children who will be 4 on or before December 1, 2025. The packets can be picked up at the Registrar's Office located in the Administration Building .
The Camden Central School District offers free Universal Pre-K to district residents. Children in our program develop the language, literacy, math, and social skills they need for success in kindergarten. Breakfast or lunch is provided, as well as transportation. Arrangements are in place to transport students in the Camden Elementary School catchment area to McConnellsville each day.
This program admits students on a first-come, first-serve basis for registration slots, and quantities are limited. For the best possible opportunity to get into our program, we recommend enrollment as soon as possible.
The majority of our Pre-K students currently attend half-day (AM or PM) programming. During the 2024-25 school year, we are offering a full-day classroom, which we hope to continue in the 2025-2026 school year, pending available funding and sufficient enrollment.
A potential full-day classroom for the 2025-26 school year would have 18 openings. If more than 18 students declare interest in a full-day program, a lottery will be held to determine who will attend the full-day class. Those in the lottery who are not selected for full-day programming will receive an opportunity in the half-day program. Students selected in the lottery would also receive a half-day opportunity in the event that a full-day classroom is not made available.
To be considered for a full-day opportunity, please register no later than April 1st, 2025, and indicate the full-day option as your first choice on the included "Choice of Program Letter" you see here.
Please fill out all three forms you see here. (Choice of Program, Registration, Wrap Around.)

KINDERGARTEN REGISTRATION
Each child admitted to kindergarten for the 2025-26 school year should reach his/her 5th birthday on or before December 1, 2025. Kindergarten features open enrollment, although early registration is encouraged to limit the impact of any issues that could arise.
If your child is currently enrolled in Camden Central School District's Universal Pre-Kindergarten program, he or she will NOT need to register for kindergarten.
