Eligibility
In accordance with Board of Education Policy, children residing in the Pelham Union Free School District are eligible to attend The Pelham Public Schools if they will be 5 years old on or before December 31 of the current academic year.
For students in Kindergarten through fifth grade, enrollment in one of our four elementary schools (Colonial, Hutchinson, Prospect Hill, and Siwanoy) is determined by the neighborhood in which you reside. If you do not know which elementary school serves your neighborhood, you should call the District Registrar at (914) 738-3434 x 1211 or email registrar@pelhamschools.org.
Students entering grades six through eight will enroll in Pelham Middle School and students entering grades nine through twelve will enroll in Pelham Memorial High School.
