All students must live within the school district boundaries and submit the required documents to the Residency Office by uploading them into the parent portal.
We are pleased to announce that we will have a new student information system, FOCUS, for the 2024-2025 school year. Your password from our previous system (SISK12) will be used to login for the new parent portal for FOCUS.

Enrollment Information

All enrollments completed on or before August 7, 2024 will be used to establish transportation/ bus pick-up times. Once routes are established for the beginning of the school year, they will not change for two weeks. During this time, we will assess for route efficiency. Failure to enroll before August 7, 2024 may result in your student not having a bus pick up/ stop for the first two weeks of school. Thank you for enrolling early in an effort to have your child fully prepared for the first day of school.
Enrollment Center at RSECCReminder: All New Students, Kindergarten, Grades 8 and 12 must submit up to date immunizations.
All incoming 8th graders will need a TDAP and MCV shot before they can start school in August.
All incoming 12th grade students will need 2 MCV shots unless the first shot was given after the age of 16. In that case, they will only need one shot before they can start in August.
Please do not wait until August to get these required vaccinations because you run the risk of doctors' offices/ health departments running out of the vaccinations before your child can receive one. Please be aware that if your child not does not have their vaccination or exemption card by the first day of school, they will not be able to start until they provide proof of the vaccination/exemption. There will be NO exceptions. Please turn in proof of the vaccinations to the nurse's office as soon as you get them.
