We are thrilled to welcome your child to our A-rated School District!
Your BEST Choice
New student registrations and transfers should follow the instructions on the Student Registration page. The Welcome Center will continue to provide support as needed, but schools should be the first option for new registrations. Children must be at least 5 years old by September 1, 2025, in order to register for Kindergarten.

The expectations below represent select skills that children should master or be working on at the end of their prekindergarten experience. It is important to remember that children enter kindergarten with a wide range of skills and experiences. Teachers in Palm Beach County School District support incoming kindergarten children at all levels of learning and development. This list of skills was developed as a part of the Riviera Beach Prekindergarten Collaborative, which is a collaborative effort between kindergarten teachers from several Riviera Beach elementary schools and directors/instructors from several Riviera Beach private childcare centers.
