Central Registration

Central Registration is open to conduct business for the 2022-2023 school year. Due to COVID-19 guidelines, please make an appointment under Step 1 below and complete Step 2 prior to your appointment. To minimize the number of people in the building at one time, we ask that just the person registering the student come inside for the appointment. If you need to do a change of address, please click on the Learn More button in the new address block below on the left for more information. For Affidavit of Residence renewals and Kinship Affidavit renewals, please just come into the office. Do not make an appointment for those services as the appointments are for new students only.

Student Enrollment (Kindergarten - Grade 12)

All new students (Pre-Kindergarten through 12th grade) and those transferring within our district will need to visit our Central Registration office to enroll your child in school. Our goal in having one location for student enrollment is to improve customer service by expediting the process, ensuring consistency across all 38 campuses and making it more convenient for those with children in more than one school. It is a requirement that the parent go to Central Registration in order to complete the registration process, even if you have completed the online application.

Parents of new or returning students must complete the online application by clicking on the link above prior to the scheduled appointment. Select 2022-2023 to complete an application for your student to begin in the fall for the 2022-2023 school year.

If you do not have access to the online registration, please arrive for your appointment at least 20 minutes early to complete your application at the Central Registration office. The more students you have to register, the longer the application will take to complete. Please note if you have not completed your online application and it is more than 20 minutes after your scheduled appointment time when you finish, you may be rescheduled for another appointment.

**Please note: Registration cannot be completed using a cell phone or tablet.**
