Welcome to the Marcellus Central School District!
Committee on Preschool Special Education Services
Parents of Pre-School students who believe their child may be in need of special education services, (speech, occupational therapy, physical therapy, teacher or behavior supports) please send a written request for a preschool evaluation to Katrina Sweeney at KSweeney@marcellusschools.org and complete the online pre-registration forms. The special education office will contact you to begin the Committee on Preschool Special Education (CPSE) process. Please contact Katrina Sweeney at 673-6006 if you have any questions or to follow up on your referral. You will receive a referral packet from the special education office within 10 business days.
Non-School Aged Census Registration
This program is intended to collect information about students who are non-school age and who will be entering Kindergarten in future years. This portal is open to provide basic demographic information to help us plan for the future and to have your family in our database so you will automatically receive registration materials when the time comes. Please click on this link "Online Pre-Registration".
Registering a new Kindergarten Student
We are now accepting kindergarten registrations for eligible students for the 2022-2023 school year.
To start the registration process we need to make sure we have a record of your child by entering them into our SchoolTool database. Please click on this link and follow the instructions. Once completed, please notify our office by emailing nphillips@marcelluschools.org. We will be using ParentSquare and USPS to finish Kindergarten Registration.
Please note: If your child is receiving special education services that does not mean that they are registered for kindergarten.
