Enrollment Steps

1. Review Important Dates

2. Gather Required Enrollment Documents

3. Complete Online Registration (OLR)/Speedy Pass 

• It is imperative that you upload the Necessary Enrollment Documents.  Improper documentation will delay the processing of the Online Registration/Enrollment Application.

4.  An Enrollment Specialist will review the OLR and process the enrollment, provided all Necessary Enrollment Documents have been uploaded.

5.  The Enrollment Specialist will email/call the parent/guardian with the school of enrollment, start date and Parent Portal set up information. 

6.  The parent/guardian will then set up the Parent Portal. 

• The Parent Portal will allow you to view your student's data (such as grades, attendance, schedules...), pay fees, apply for a Pre-K placement or the School Choice Lottery (K-12) and much, much more.

** It is important to note, that if you are planning to submit a lottery application, the Online Registration must be submitted with all necessary documents by February 22nd for Middle/High School and by March 22nd for Elementary School.  This will ensure that you have the Parent Portal activation code by the lottery deadline.
