GENERAL ENROLLMENT INFORMATION

We will again be using online enrollment for all of our returning K-12 students this year. This will be the only way to enroll your child unless you are new to the district, and even then, you'll need to complete your child's enrollment through online enrollment in Skyward.

If you need more detailed information, please see the document titled "How to Enroll Online," which can be found directly under this heading in the Enrollment section on the Centre USD 397 website.

Online Enrollment will be available July 31 - August 17.  Click here to begin Online Enrollment (or click on the Skyward Family & Student Access link at the top of this website page).

You will need access to your Skyward Family access account. If you need your password or would like to change it, please call the school office at 785-983-4321 to request this information OR you can send an email to onlineenrollment@usd397.com with YOUR NAME, YOUR CHILD'S NAME, USERNAME, and PASSWORD that you would like to have.

If you are new to the district, we will have staff available to help get your child enrolled on Tuesday, August 8 from 9:00 am until 6:00 pm. If this date does not work for you, please call the school office at 785-983-4321 to schedule an appointment.

If you do not have access to a computer or the internet, we will have computers available at the school on August 8 from 9:00 am until 6:00 pm.

Centre USD 397 will again be using a district-wide notification system. It works with the information that you put into your Skyward Family Access account. Please make sure that you put up-to-date phone numbers and email addresses for your family. You can update this information through your Skyward Family Access account at any time during the school year.
