District 102 Registration Information

To attend a D102 school, a parent/guardian must prove the student resides within the district boundaries. Prior to beginning the registration process, please visit the Residency Information page to see what documents we require.

Also required is legal identification for both the parent/guardian (official photo ID) and the student’s original birth certificate, no copies. If a birth certificate is not available at the time of registration, a passport can be used to verify the birthdate but a birth certificate must be provided within 30 days of enrollment.

The registration process for new students includes two steps:

  1. Parent/Guardian completes the Pre-Registration Form.  Basic student and family information is collected in this step and residency is verified.

  2. Once residency is verified by the District, the parent/guardian will receive an email with a link and code to complete the registration process. The parent/guardian provides additional information and pays required fees.  Note:  If you are registering a student for the 2023-2024 school year, this step will occur in early April.
