This page applies to families registering their new K-12 student at their neighborhood school. If you are registering for Preschool or are applying for School Choice, we have some specific pages for you:
Register Online
All new students must register. The registration process is completely online and can be completed at any time. Returning students already enrolled at an Academy District 20 school do not need to re-register each year. If you are participating in School Choice, you can register after you've completed that process.
Registration is an online process and takes approximately 20 – 30 minutes. All required fields are marked with an asterisk. Please be careful of spelling, capitalization and punctuation. For best results, make sure you are using the newest version of your browser, and that pop-up blockers have been disabled.
Once you complete the registration process, you will receive an email confirmation and instructions with next steps.

Kindergarten: must be 5 years old by Oct. 1
