Reassignment Process

If you are interested in applying for your kindergartner’s reassignment into Hendersonville Elementary School for the 2025-2026 school year, you must complete the following steps:

  • Everyone must register their child for kindergarten in their designated school district even if requesting a reassignment to HES. This is required in order to be entered into the lottery. View the district’s Kindergarten Registration Information page for more information. To determine your child’s home school district, please call the HCPS Transportation Department at (828)697-4739.
  • If your child has a sibling already enrolled at HES, please contact the front office. You should have received information in your child’s red communication folder.
  • Submit a 2025-2026 Reassignment Request FormĀ  to Hendersonville Elementary School between April 1-April 30, 2025. Forms can be dropped off at the HES office or mailed to the school at 1039 Randall Circle Hendersonville, NC 28791.
  • Following a lottery that is conducted by HCPS Central Office staff in early May, HES school personnel will notify parents via letter and phone call whether their child was selected for reassignment to HES.

Students in grades 1-5 who are currently enrolled in another school or district and wish to be reassigned to HES, must also submit a 2025-2026 Reassignment Request Form between April 1-April 30, 2025. The same lottery procedures listed above will be followed based on space availability.

Please visit the HCPS website for more information about the Reassignment Process.
