Admissions

Updated 7mo ago

Sand Creek Elementary is part of Hamilton Southeastern Schools (HSE), and standard enrollment is primarily for families who reside within HSE district boundaries; students are assigned to their “home school” based on the family’s address using the district’s boundary map tools. (sce.hseschools.org) To enroll, families determine their assigned school, gather required documents (e.g., state-issued birth certificate, parent/guardian photo ID, custody/guardianship papers if applicable, three proofs of residency, and immunization records), then create/access a Skyward account and complete the online enrollment steps and submit the application. (sce.hseschools.org) Key dates/eligibility examples for 2026–2027 include: kindergarten requires the child to be age 5 by August 1, 2026, and early-entrance requests (kindergarten or first grade, depending on circumstances) have application windows that open February 1, 2026 and close August 1, 2026. (sce.hseschools.org) For preschool (offered at Sand Creek Elementary), space is limited and the 2026–2027 preschool application window is February 13–20 (with required uploads like birth certificate, vaccination records, and proof of residency); families are emailed next steps if placed in a classroom. (sce.hseschools.org) If you are not an in-boundary resident, HSE offers a non-resident transfer process for 2026–2027 with priority consideration for complete applications submitted by April 17, 2026 (accepted until January 15, 2027); applicants not selected due to capacity are placed on a waitlist, and children of HSE employees may also request placement under the employee-student-transfer policy (capacity-dependent, with a priority deadline of January 30, 2026).
