23/24 Lottery Registration

---

 For Students New to the School:

Once a student is accepted through the lottery process, you will be required to upload the required documents.  When your student has been accepted, and prior to beginning online registration, gather the following:

• Birth Certificate.  To be enrolled in kindergarten in the State of New Mexico, a child must be at least five years of age prior to 12:01 a.m., on September 1, of the school year in which they are enrolling.
  • The student's birth certificate is required to provide proof of age. 

• Proof of Residency.  Students must live in the State of New Mexico and provide proof of residency to be eligible for enrollment. Please provide ONE of the following proof of residency when enrolling. The bill must also include the enrolling caretaker's name and service address:
  • Utility Bill - water, electric, sewage, or gas bill dated within the last 60 days. The bill must also include the enrolling caretaker's name and service address.
  • Mortgage or Lease statement - a mortgage statement, lease, or rental agreement dated within the last 60 days. 
  • Letter from a government agency 
• Immunization Records.  All New Mexico students must provide evidence of compliance with immunization requirements. Please provide ONE of the following proofs of immunizations:
  • Immunization book with physician signatures/stamps
  • Health care provider or Health Department printout of immunizations
  • Parents and guardians can access and print official immunization records at the New Mexico Health Department's VaxView portal. A complete list of required immunizations can be found at the New Mexico Health Department's School Immunizations Requirements for K-12 webpage. 
  • A student may be exempted from required immunizations for the valid medical reasons or religious beliefs. 
    
    • Medical Exemption - Please submit the New Mexico Health Department's New Mexico Certificate of Exemption. 
    • Religious Exemption - Please submit the New Mexico Health Department's New Mexico Certificate of Religious Exemption. 

• Dental Examination.  Upon initial enrollment in a district or charter school, New Mexico Administrative Code (NMAC) 6.12.13 requires schools to verify student records of dental examination. This rule also allows for an informed opt-out process based on parent or guardian understanding of the risks associated with not having a dental examination. 

Do I have to answer every question?
Questions marked with a red asterisk (*) are required and must be completed to submit the final form.

What if I made a mistake?
If you would like to make a change - prior to submitting the form - you can either navigate back to the page using the “<Prev” and “Next>” buttons. Or, if you are on the Review page, click on the underlined field. If you have already submitted the form, then you will need to contact your student’s school, so staff members can make the changes for you.

I’ve completed the form. Now what?
Once you have finished entering your information, click “Submit.” This will send the information you have entered to directly to our enrolling team. If you cannot click on this button, you will need to make sure that you have answered all the required questions.

All required fields must be completed to submit the form.

You will be notified with the next steps once

ALL DOCUMENTS have been submitted and are complete.

What if I have more than one student in the school? Do I have to do this for each child?
Yes, because you’ll need to provide information that is specific to each child. We recommend that you complete and submit one form and then start another. 

Once you complete one child’s information, some of the information will be filled in for any additional children you need to add/update.  

I’m having technical issues and I’m stuck. What do I do?
