As a district, we have taken all of the necessary precautions to keep our staff and students safe. It is imperative that as a community we remain vigilant and follow the recommendations and protocols provided by the Suffolk County Department of Health Services, https://www.suffolkcountyny.gov/Departments/Health-Services/Health-Bulletins/Novel-Coronavirus/SCDHS-COVID19-Guidance-and-Services, when we are outside of school as well to avoid an even greater increase in positive cases. 

I remind you to please report positive cases directly to the established COVID19Positive@lufsd.org email address and not to your child’s teacher. Additionally, if when you complete the health screening electronically, you receive a red stop sign screen on your display, please know that you cannot come to school on that day.

Registration of eligible kindergarten students for the 2021-2022 school year will be performed remotely online due to the COVID-19 pandemic. In accordance with established policy of the Lindenhurst School District, children must be 5 years of age on or before Dec. 1, 2020, to be enrolled in kindergarten for the upcoming year. If your child has received or is currently receiving preschool special education services, you will still need to register for kindergarten. 

The fastest way to register is online by following these 3 easy steps:

1. Complete the application online at: https://parentportal.eschooldata.com/lindenhurst/register/0/en

2. Next, download the packet below:

3. Then, complete the packet and return the required documents by email to: registration@lufsd.org

Required documents: Proof of birth, immunization records, and health appraisal form (physical) for each child.

Paper registration packets are available upon request.

Contact  registration@lufsd.org or call (631)867-3055.

For your child to be included in kindergarten screening and orientation, it is asked that you make every effort to register your child as soon as possible. Children who have not been registered by the screening and/or orientation dates scheduled by the individual elementary schools will not be allowed to attend the screening and/or orientation.

As a specific number of kindergarten seats exist in each elementary school, the district must utilize a first-come, first-served procedure. Please note that students registering later during the year may be enrolled in an overflow school within the Lindenhurst Union Free School District.
