Welcome to Timber Lane Elementary School!

We're excited to welcome our newest Tigers! 

To join us, first determine if your student lives in the Timber Lane Elementary School boundary by viewing the FCPS boundary locator. If your student does live in our boundary, please fill out the new student registration signup/intake form below. Your form will be submitted to La Tesha Scott, our school's Student Information Assistant, who will be able to assist you with the registration process.

In order to register for kindergarten, a student must be five years old by September 30 of the year in that they are starting kindergarten. 

Learn more about our school through our online orientation.

    • Parents of rising kindergarten students enrolling before the start of the school year in a home language other than English are able to do so through the school.
    • Parents of kindergarten students enrolling  after the start of the school year in a home language other than English should please do so through the  FCPS Student Registration Welcome Center.

    A student who is being registered for kindergarten must be at least five years old by September 30 of the year they will be starting kindergarten.
    Please enter the day, month, and year the student was born. For example - January 12, 2002
