Welcome to Ridgecrest Elementary! We are so excited to welcome you and your kindergartener!
If you have a child that will be five years of age on or before September 1, 2025, the child qualifies for kindergarten this fall. State law requires that all school districts in Utah abide by the same September 1st entrance cut-off date.
You will be required to provide an official birth certificate, an immunization record or Utah exemption form, and proof of residency during this process.
To register in Canyons School District, you must first enroll your child using the Skyward Family Access Portal. Students who are new to Canyons School District, have never attended one of our schools, and do not have a Skyward Family Access Account, will need to create one by selecting Temporary Account for New Student Enrollment.
If you already have a student attending Canyons School District, click on New Student Enrollment to link your new student with your existing Skyward account.
By completing these steps, you will receive information about kindergarten orientation. Kindergarten orientation is Friday, April 18 at 2:00 pm in the gym. We have out of boundary students on a waitlist to get into Ridgecrest for kindergarten this fall. Having a prompt accurate count of our own boundary students will go a long way in keeping class sizes manageable.
Kindergarten at Ridgecrest is full day. If you are interested in participating in a half-day kindergarten option, please reach out to the principal to discuss what this looks like. Email sara.allen@canyonsdistrict.org. You must reach out by February 28, 2025 for a half-day option.
Please feel free to contact the school at 801-826-9250 with any questions or concerns.
