The dates for
registration for the 2016-2017 school year are coming fast. Beginning July
18, 2016, parents of returning students may register their children online
using the Parent Access Portal. Online payments will be available for grades
K-8 on Monday, Aug. 1. Due to potential student schedule changes, online
payments for grades 9-12 will be available beginning Thursday, Sept. 15.
Requirements for
Transitioning Students
If your child will
be transitioning to a new Duneland School (e.g. moving from elementary to
intermediate; intermediate to middle; middle to high school), parents will
be required to complete a new residency affirmation statement and provide
the required residency affirmation documents listed under Residency
Requirements. You are obligated to do this at your child’s school building
during the registration dates listed below. This is necessary even if you
have a student in another grade that is not transitioning.
Residency
Requirements
Proof of Residency
(i.e. legal settlement) is required for all new students, transitioning
students and students whose residence within the district has changed since
they last enrolled in school. Acceptable documentation of legal settlement
must include the student and parent/guardian’s current address on a valid
rental/mortgage agreement and one additional document, such as a
current payroll stub, a valid voter’s registration card, copies of current
monthly utility bills or a valid government issued ID.
