    How is this different from past years?

    The registration window for returning families will close May 31st

    For the 2023-24 school year, parents of currently enrolled students MUST register between April 1st and May 31st. After the 31st, we will close the application window until we reopen for Late Registration. We will announce Late Registration in June.
    We will send out reminders prior to closing the application window.

    The registration window will not close for new families to the district, or for students who were not enrolled in School District U-46 for the 2022-23 school year. Please visit New Families for more information.

    Late Registration 

    We will re-open the Campus Parent portal to the application once all applications submitted prior to the deadline have been reviewed. 
    An announcement will be made prior to opening Late Registration in June.
    ​We are requesting that parents/guardians complete and submit their registration during the two-month window, April 1st - May 31st. Please do not delay.  

    Schedule Release

    ​The district will be releasing schedules on July 17 only to fully registered middle and high school students through the Registration Checklist, login with your Infininte Campus username and password. 

    What is required to be considered Fully Registered?  

    • Your annual online registration must be submitted
    • Current proof of residency must be on file for each student, including required Category A & B documentation
    • All health requirements must be turned in and up-to-date
    • A certified copy of your child's birth certificate must be on file

    What if I am not sure my students will return?

    If your plans change at any time, you can withdraw your child from U-46. There is no penalty or fee. If you do need to withdraw your students, you will need to fill out a Consent of Release of Records form and turn it into your child's school, or the Registration Office for elementary students while they are closed for the summer.
