I am getting an error “You have selected a date after the end of the current school year...”

I am getting an error about “The uniform entry age for kindergarten in the State of Washington is five years old by midnight on August 31. If a student’s birthdate is after August 31, they start kindergarten the following school year.” However, my student will be 5 by August 31.
Please check the date of birth of the student and grade you entered. This form is checking to see if the student will be 5 years old by the end of the day on August 31 if you are enrolling for the fall, or was 5 years old by the end of the day on August 31 of the last August, if the student is being enrolled in the current school year.
You may also be completing a current year enrollment instead of a fall enrollment. Our Online Enrollment Form is by school year. Please go back to the Enrollment website to look for the fall form (it is labelled for the NEXT school year). If there is no fall option yet, then fall enrollment has not yet begun.
