 Click Here to Pre-Enroll for 2023-24 School Year only

If your child’s school is unknown, visit our School Finder page

ASD has an open enrollment policy for students who attend a school or program outside their regular attendance areas.

A lottery system is used to provide an equal opportunity for students who request participation in an alternative program or school for which the number of applications exceeds the number of available openings. Approval or denial is based on space availability per grade level. Lotteries are held twice per year – in March and July.

Application procedures

• Parents who have children enrolled in ASD can access the system through Q ParentConnection.
• New-to-District parents can visit www.asdk12.org/welcome/lottery.
• For more information contact your child’s school.

Part-time students

Students enrolled in non-ASD schools who wish to enroll part-time (three classes or less) should contact District schools for an application form and register at the same time as district students.

Registration for ELL Families

Any New-to-District family should register at their home school or online. If you need language assistance, please call

907-742-4452. Families connecting with their home schools is our primary goal. Only new-to-country secondary (middle and high schools) students (within the last year) need to be tested right away to determine if they are eligible for the Newcomers’ Program. If secondary and new to the country and district, please email Katie Bisson at Bisson_Katie@asdk12.org or call and leave a message at 907-742-2171 or Michelle Yoon at 907-742-1977 or email Yoon_Michelle@asdk12.org to request assistance. One of those two individuals will get back to schools and families the beginning of August.

ASD has more than 130 schools and programs to meet the various learning needs of students. Visit www.asdk12.org/aboutschools to learn more about our schools.

Neighborhood schools
The neighborhood schools in Anchorage offer a high-quality and well-rounded standard school education program. More than 90 percent of Anchorage School District students enjoy the comprehensive curriculum in the neighborhood schools. Remedial and advanced classes are available in a variety of subjects.

Special mission schools and programs
In addition to the standard school program, the District offers many special mission schools and programs including charter schools, home school, open optional, ABC, world languages immersion, Montessori, STEM, career technical education, and middle college schools. Other programs such as English Language Learners, Gifted, and Special Education are also available.

School Board Support for Healthy Diet and Activity Choices
The District/schools will support the efforts of parents to provide a healthy diet and daily physical activity for their children. Schools will encourage parents to pack healthy lunches and snacks and to refrain from including beverages and foods that do not meet nutrition standards.

To promote good health, get lots of fresh air and exercise, along with healthy snacks and meals that are both tasty and appealing to the eye.

Consider these easy tips:

• Get active! Play outside or sign up for school activities
• Get at least 60 minutes of physical activity, five times a week
• Go for a walk or run
• Play a game, ride a bike, skate, or swim
• Take a water bottle to school
• Don't skip meals
  • Start the day with a nutritious breakfast
  • Choose low-fat milk & avoid sugary juices
  • Eat whole grain products and colorful fresh fruits & vegetables
  • Keep a bowl of fruit on the table for easy snacks
• Easy snacks might include:
  • Fun treats like Ants on a Stick using celery, nut butter, & raisins
  • Low-fat cheese with whole-grain crackers
  • Unsalted nuts

ASD Student Nutrition operates nutritionally balanced breakfast and lunch programs at schools across the District. ASD operates the largest food preparation and serving operation in Alaska. Menus and nutritional information can be found on the mobile app and at www.asdk12.org/StudentNutrition.

Free and reduced-price meals
ASD provides free and reduced-price meals for students that meet household size and income criteria. The Federal eligibility income chart for the school year can be found on the Student Nutrition webpages.

Children who are approved for the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) or Temporary Aid for Needy Families (TANF) are automatically eligible to receive free meals by filling out an application that includes the assistance number from the program. Students who are migrant or homeless are eligible once certified by Child in Transition or Migrant Education Department. Foster children receive free meals regardless of the income of the household in which they reside.

Parents must submit new applications for free or reduced-price meals each school year. If a child was approved last year, there is a 30-day time period to recertify for the 2022–23 school year. Families with new-to-district students and kindergartners should apply in August. Returning students should apply between August and October 1. The new determination will take effect immediately after processing by Student Nutrition and within 10 days if that status becomes lower than the prior year’s application. Applications can take 10 days to process. Electronic applications typically are processed in 24 – 48 hours.

Applications are available at each school, ASD Education Center, Student Nutrition offices, online at www.asdk12.org/StudentNutrition, and via Q ParentConnection. Applications translated into Spanish, Samoan, Hmong, Korean, and Tagalog are available online. Applications may be verified at any time during the school year. Please submit only one application per family.

Parents are responsible for their child’s meals until notified by letter, which is sent to the address on file at the child’s school.

CEP schools
Some schools may be designated to a special category (known as CEP Schools) which allows those schools to feed all students free without applications. If a student transfers within ASD to a non-CEP school, an application must be submitted in order to continue to qualify for free or reduced-price meals.

COMMUNITY ELIGIBLE SCHOOLS

For more information, or to apply for free or reduced-price meals, visit
www.asdk12.org/StudentNutrition. Contact us snadmin@asdk12.org or 907-348-5142.

For information on free or low cost clinics to immunize your child, waivers or exemptions, and the state’s immunization requirements, visit www.asdk12.org/healthservices/immunizations.

District students who live more than 1.5 miles from their school, or who live along routes designated as hazardous for walking, are eligible to ride a school bus. Students who live less than 1.5 miles from school walk or arrange alternate transportation. Bus schedules for the current school year will be available at all schools during registration and will be posted online. For more information, please contact your child’s school.

Volunteers support the Anchorage School District students, teachers, and staff through commitment and service in an effort to ensure students succeed in life.  Volunteers encourage and inspire excellence in learning and goal achievement for all!
