| |
|
 ASD is offering centralized enrollment for new-to-district families this week. The event is open to families with students who have never attended an ASD school and is specifically geared towards families with middle and high school students.
Parents will be able to register their students at one location and speak with ASD department representatives to assist them in areas such as assessment, nursing services, counseling, bus transportation, community services, and more. Immunizations, interpreters and other district resources will be available.
Parents may enroll their children at the following times:
- Wednesday, July 20, 10 a.m. - 2 p.m.
- Thursday, July 21, 4 - 7 p.m.
- Saturday, July 23, 10 a.m. - 2 p.m.
Registration will take place at the ASD Education Center, located at 5530 E. Northern Lights Blvd.
To complete enrollment, parents must bring:
- Proof of residency
- Current official record of immunization
- Children that are enrolling in school
Students who are returning to Anchorage schools and kindergarten parents should plan to attend their regularly scheduled registration time to activate their class schedules or get on a class list.
More back-to-school information, including registration schedules for returning students, is available online at www.asdk12.org/BacktoSchool .
