Registration for Kindergarten or First Grade. Age Requirements. To enter kindergarten in the 2016-17 school year, your child must be five years old on or before August 31. For Grade 1, your child must be six years old on or before August 31. You will need to show a birth certificate for your child (or a similar document, such as a passport, that shows birthdate).
The 2010 Kindergarten Readiness Act, signed into law by Gov. Schwarzenegger, changed the kindergarten entry date from Dec. 2 to Sept. 1 so that children enter kindergarten at age 5. The law phased in the new age requirement by moving the cutoff date one month a year for three years.
