Below is a step-by-step guide for registering your child for Grades 1-12 (New and Returning Students)
Step One:
To get started, the District requires the following information to complete your child's registration.
Please begin by gathering the items listed below:

-Photo ID of Parent/Guardian enrolling child (Driver's License, Passport or Identify Card - cannot be expired)
-Copy of your child's YTD Immunizations as required by law (must be a copy from Health Care Provider)
You will be asked to upload these documents...a clear scan or picture (jpeg or the like) will upload well.
Step Two:
Complete the online registration packet.
You will begin by creating a login on our Student Registration Community Web Portal.
(1) Click on CREATE a NEW ACCOUNT--you will be asked to enter your first and last name; working email address; desired password and a security question/answer.
(2) Once you complete this step, you will be directed to verify your email address. Check your email for a message titled "Community Web Portal Student Registration Account Email Confirmation".
(3) Verify your newly created account through the email sent to you. You are now ready to begin the online registration process. (It is very important to remember your newly created password--you will need to enter your email and password each time you enter the registration portal.)
