A child must be 5 years old on or before September 1 for kindergarten and 6 by the same date for first grade, after attending kindergarten, and the page says neither grade allows early entrance. A first application for a Weatherbee seat is uploaded with an original birth certificate, proof of address, proof of custody when the child does not live with both natural parents, the last school attended, any IEP and a Social Security card if the family has one; if the address proofs carry another name, the Fort Pierce area family adds a notarized affidavit of residence (Student Assignment required documents). After the assignment, registration asks for a physical dated within 12 months and the Florida Certificate of Immunization.
