Enrollment Process
Our district has a centralized enrollment process and all students that are new or who are reentering the district after being enrolled elsewhere will now enroll at our Enrollment Office. Enrollment is a “one time only” process and should not be confused with annual registration that takes place every August for students who completed the previous school year at a School District of Waukesha school.
Please Note: Enrollment for the 2024-2025 school year will begin on December 1st. Your student will NOT be enrolled until STEPS 1 and 2 (listed below) are completed.
