Welcome to Pembroke Elementary!

Pembroke Elementary is located in southern Christian County just south of Pembroke on Highway 115. While located in a rural community, Pembroke Elementary has a widely diverse student population. Some of our students come from the city of Pembroke and the surrounding farming community. The remainder of the student population comes from nearby Oak Grove. Our proximity to the Fort Campbell military base means we have the privilege to educate a large number of students whose parents are serving our country.

*Reminders*

Each student enrolling must present the following:

  • Certified Birth Certificate from the Vital Statistics Office of the state where the child was born; or other reliable proof of the student’s identity and age and an affidavit of the inability to produce a copy of the birth certificate.
  • Student’s Social Security Card or copy of the card (optional)

  • Dental screening or examination (for initial entry into a Kentucky School ages 5-6)
  • An up-to-date Immunization Certificate on a Kentucky form
  • A second MMR, complete Hepatitis B series, and a chicken pox vaccination

Students who are enrolling in public school for the first time must provide proof of an eye examination – not an eye screening – conducted by an optometrist or ophthalmologist prior to the first day of school. All students must have on file an up-to-date immunization certificate. All transfer students must present a completed medical examination form and a Kentucky immunization certificate. Parents/guardians of transfer students should sign a release form in order for the school district to obtain records from the school previously attended.

Those students entering the sixth grade must have a second varicella, TdaP, meningitis shot, as well as a recent physical examination. Students enrolled or enrolling in the Christian County School System must comply with all Kentucky health laws, rules and regulations except as provided in KRS 214:036.

This evidence must be presented to the school no later than Jan. 1 of the first year a 5- or 6-year-old child is enrolled in public school.

Parents should call immediately to schedule an appointment with their family physician or the Christian County Health Department, as state regulations and local policy mandate strict enforcement of these requirements.
