The 2026-2027 returning student registration is now open through your Skyward Portal! Online registration is a simple process that will take 10-15 minutes. Your student must be enrolled in-order to be given a teacher assignment and/or class schedule.
In our commitment to providing the best educational experience for your student(s), we ask that you complete the registration process by Tuesday, May 26, 2026. By closing registration at this time, it allows our staff time to prepare for the upcoming school year. This includes organizing class schedules, securing necessary resources and ensuring a smooth transition for both students and staff.
School fees and health documents are not due until the first day of school on Thursday, August 13, 2026. This gives families the flexibility they need while still ensuring that the registration process is completed in a timely manner. Fees may be paid online through your Skyward Portal.
Please note, if your address has changed, and/or you have a Residency Verification Form on file, you will need to update your residency information with the district prior to your student starting the 26-27 school year
