If you have a child who will be age 5 by September 1, 2023...it is time for kindergarten!

The event will be hosted at each of our elementary buildings.

Northview Public Schools participates in the Kent Intermediate School District's Schools of Choice program. This program is open to all families residing within one of the twenty (20) Kent ISD school districts. Students are eligible for the Kent ISD Choice Plan, regardless of grade level, ethnic background or student ability. The only limits on movement between school districts are the number of spaces available in each district or the student's suspension or expulsion record.

The Schools of Choice application period will open April 10 and run through May 12, 2023. Watch our social media for reminders and check our website for details at nvps.net/ schools-of-choice. If you have questions, contact Central Enrollment at enroll@nvps.net.
