Returning Student Registration graphic RETURNING STUDENT REGISTRATION

Returning Student Registration Information for the 2023-2024 school year was emailed to parents on April 20. The email includes a SnapCode which is unique for each student and different than the one used last year. You will need the SnapCode from the email to begin the registration process. If you have not received the "Registration and SnapCode Information" email, be sure to check the inboxes of both custodial parents/guardians and check your spam folder. If you don't find the email, please contact the registrar at the school your student will be attending for the 2023-2024 school year. 

PLEASE NOTE: The deadline to complete online registration for returning students is Monday, May 15.
It is very important that all returning students complete online registration by May 15 to avoid disruptions in our registration process. Students will not be placed on an official class roll/schedule until PowerSchool Registration and Proof of Residence are complete.

Remember - in addition to online registration, you must also complete the Proof of Residence step.

If you have any technical difficulties, visit help.powerschool.com or click “Contact Us” from any PowerSchool Registration page.
