2026-2027 School Year
If you would like to apply to PS 8 for Kindergarten for the 2026-2027 school year, please visit the NYCPS website. The application process is managed by elementary school enrollment. The application will open on December 9, 2025 and close on January 23, 2026. It is expected that your child resides in the PS 8 zone at the time that the application is completed.
If your child lives within the PS 8 zone and you would like to apply for grades 1-5 for the 2026-2027 school year, please reach out to our parent coordinator ">Eileen Carrier.
PS 8 is offered three open houses this year. We do not offer one-on-one tours.
There are many documents required to pre-register a child at a New York City Public School. Be prepared to share, at the time of pre-registration, proof of the child’s age (passport or birth certificate), two proofs of child’s address (zoned for PS 8), and immunization records. Please review the Pre-registration Checklist.
Address Verification Policy
We are extremely conscientious and strict about address verification. Your zoned school is where your child’s PRIMARY residence is located. This may NOT be an apartment you own/rent but do not reside in at the time of application/registration, nor can this be your place of employment. This may not be a temporary apartment you have rented for a few months with the intention of registering your child at PS 8. It cannot be an address that you plan to move to after you complete the application. These are all prohibited by Chancellor’s Regulations. We are scrupulous in address verification due to the fact that over the last few years we have had many more applicants than seats available and we must retain the integrity of the process for legitimately zoned families. We retain the right to do address investigations and abide by the results of those investigations.
