Your Child’s Journey Starts Here – Enroll Today!

At Murphy ESD, we are more than a school district—we are a community where every child can explore, grow, and thrive. We know parents today want more than just academics—they want a school that inspires curiosity, nurtures individuality, and prepares students for a world full of possibilities.

From the first day of kindergarten to advanced enrichment programs, we are committed to helping your child discover their passions, build confidence, and reach their full potential.

Kindergarten Age Requirement

Students must be 5 years old by August 31 to enter school. If your child turns 5 after August 31, they are not eligible for kindergarten until the following year.

Out of School Boundary/ School District Enrollment

The Murphy School district offers parents the opportunity to express their preference for any district school. Students can request open enrollment to any school in the district provided space is available. Parents registering their children at a school other than their home school will be responsible for transportation. Principals at each school will accept open enrollment requests based upon capacity as determined by current enrollment and an anticipated growth margin.

Enrollment Documents

Enrollment forms can be completed at the school site throughout the year. Parents will need to furnish the following information for all students:

  • A birth certificate or a certified copy
  • An immunization record
  • Proof of residency (utility bill, rent receipt, lease agreement, escrow doc., etc.)
  • Legal guardian or custody papers, if applicable
  • Official withdrawal form from the previously attended school (grades 1st - 8th)
