Enrollment

To register for the 2026–2027 school year, youngsters must be five years old on or before the first day of kindergarten instruction, which is on August 19, 2026.

In Ohio, a student may be enrolled in school by a biological or adoptive parent, a legal guardian appointed by the court, or an individual who has been granted legal custody through a court order. In certain circumstances, a grandparent or other caregiver may enroll a child if they have proper legal documentation (such as a power of attorney or caretaker authorization affidavit) in accordance with Ohio law.

MVCSD requires official documentation to verify legal authority before completing enrollment.
