The 2023-24 Online Registration will be open starting Monday, July 17th at 10 am. After registration is complete and you go to the payment area, please click only one time, be patient and wait for it to go through. If you have a question about payment going through, call us and we will check for you instead of clicking a second time.
Free and reduced applications – If you received a letter or email stating that you already qualified I ASK THAT YOU DO NOT FILL OUT the online free and reduced application as the waiver has already been applied. As a reminder the waiver only applies to the registration fee. You are responsible for all other course fees.
In-Person Registration for ALL SCHOOLS will be held on Thursday, August 3, 2023, 10 am - 6pm. If you need to register your student in person instead of online, you will do so at your child's respective buildings on Thursday, August 3, 2023, from 10:00 am - 6:00 pm.
Physical, Sports Physical, Dental-Miles of Smiles, and Vision examination forms along with all supply lists and registration fees will be posted on our district website at www.vandals203.org
