Kindergarten Registration for School Year 2025-2026
Important Notice: This form is for KINDERGARTEN registrations only for the 2025-2026 school year.
Children born in 2020 are eligible to register for Kindergarten.
If you are registering your child for grades 1-12 for the 2025-2026 school year, please wait until registration opens for those grade levels. If you are registering for the current school year, please use the 2024-2025 registration form. For further information, you may also contact your school directly.
To register any student in the Portage la Prairie School Division, the following documents are needed:
- A copy of your child's birth certificate
- Proof of residency (e.g. utility bill or lease agreement) - students registering at ÉAM do not need to provide proof of residency because all of Portage and the Rural Municipality is the catchment for French Immersion.
- Any necessary documentation, such as a School of Choice Form or custody papers
- Signed Page 9 of the Responsible Use of Technology Agreement (a paper copy is also available in your child's school if needed)
NOTE: Parents or guardians choosing to bypass Kindergarten for their child should note that the child will start in grade 1 the following year.

Catchment Areas
Before submitting your registration, please confirm the designated catchment school for your child using our Catchment Area Map. Students must attend the school within the catchment area where they reside. Exceptions are made using the Schools of Choice application process.
The catchment area for French Immersion is all of Portage la Prairie School Division, so if you live in Portage la Prairie or the Rural Municipality, you do not need to fill out a School of Choice Form. French Immersion registrations should be made to École Arthur Meighen.
