Arlington County Schools Last update: August 29, 1997 How do I register my child for school? You'll need a birth certificate, immunization, proof of residency (lease, deed, mortgage), and proof of a negative tuberculosis test. You also will need a completed Virginia State Health Form signed by a doctor. The TB test and the state health exam must be less than a year old. You can register your children at any time. However, school officials normally don't accept registration of new kindergarten students until 10 months before their entrance to school. You must register your child at the local school that he or she will attend. Call the Office of Information at 358-6005 to find your local school.
