Welcome to Elkhart Community Schools, Class of 2030!
Welcome to Elkhart Community Schools! We’re excited to meet you and welcome you to the ECS family!
Kindergarten registration packets are available at all fourteen elementary schools. When you have completed the packet, please bring it to the school, along with your child’s birth certificate, immunization records, and your proof of residency/address. We encourage you to bring your incoming kindergarten student with you to familiarize him or her with the school building and staff.
