Enrollment Information

USD 431 has updated and streamlined the way enrollment is done starting in the 2024-2025 school year. Please follow the directions below to successfully get your student(s) enrolled. USD 431 has a 2 day wait time from the time the enrollment forms are completed to the day a student may start classes, but administrator discretion can lessen or lengthen this wait time.

New Student Instructions - PreK-12

Follow the URL here to fill out the appropriate online pre-registration form:

K-12 Pre-Registration Form

Preschool Pre-Registration Form

This form gives USD 431 some basic information on new students wanting to attend school in the district, and allows our administration staff to review students before approving or declining their potential enrollment. If you are not approved, you will receive an email stating that, and will need to reach out to the correct school building if you have questions. Once submitted, you will receive an email within 30 minutes of approval confirming the status of the pre-registration, which will include instructions and student credentials for PowerSchool. You will use these credentials to link your student to you when you create an account, and then you will log in to the PowerSchool Parent Portal to complete the enrollment packet. On the left hand side of the screen, navigate to "Forms," then select the tab that says "Enrollment." Start at the form labeled letter "A" and work your way through the packet. PLEASE READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY! Make sure ALL forms show a green check mark that says "SUBMITTED" to verify you are finished.
