Registration for all returning students will be conducted online for the upcoming school year, with no scheduled in-person registration for the District. The online registration will be available through TeacherEase, opening on Monday, July 6, 2026, and closing on Monday, July 27, 2026. After this period, parents/guardians will need to visit their respective school offices to register their students.

For those without access to online registration, we will have kiosk stations set up in both school offices, and staff will be available to assist with the process.
