Registration 2022-2023
Registration begins Monday, August 1. Book fees will be discounted $10 through Wednesday August 10. All students need to be registered by Monday, August 15. While registration will take place entirely online, families can make an appointment if they need help with registration.
If you need to enroll new students in our district, you'll need to start by filling out an online application form. After you complete this form, our secretaries will be notified and review your submission. Once they approve your enrollment, you'll receive an additional email with instructions on completing the rest of your students' registration.
Do you need to fill out a free/reduced lunch application?
You can fill it out and send it to Amy using the information below. They'll process your application and let you know your status as quickly as possible.

Registration is online once again. You will need to access your PowerSchool Parent Portal account in order to access the registration forms for your student(s).
If you do not remember your Parent Portal account login information, you can use the forgot password link on the login screen. If you have trouble with that, you are also welcome to email Trish for help.
Complete instructions can be found below.
You will need to use a computer or tablet to access the registration forms, as they are not compatible with smartphones.
