Is "At what age should my child go to kindergarten" grammatical?

Assume I don't know the compulsory school age in California. Is it natural to ask about it this way?

At what age should my child go to kindergarten?

This sounds OK to me.

However, since there is a compulsory school age then I would use must instead of should..

This is just a minor grammar correction and in everyday English people might use either.
