Usually by the age of 5, deadline being September 1 of the given school year.

In accordance with Board Policy 7:50, beginning with the 2022-23 school year, all students who are 5 years old on or before September 1, 2022, will be enrolled into kindergarten and all students who are 6 years old on or before September 1, 2022, will be enrolled into first grade. Therefore, if you have a student who will be 5 years old on or before September 1, 2022, and eligible to enroll in kindergarten for the 2022-23 school year, and you chose not to enroll your student in District 97 for kindergarten that school year, your student will be enrolled in first grade for the 2023-24 school year. 

No.

The two parent-guardian fields are reserved for adults who have legal guardianship and custody of the student. You can add a step-parent who does not have legal guardianship or custody as an emergency contact.

If the other parent/guardian has custodial or educational rights regarding the student, you will need to enter their name and contact information as Parent/Guardian 2.

Registration Information >>

There are three ways to do this:

1. You can save a document electronically as a PDF and then upload it
   a. This is a good method if you handle your bills online.
   b. Do NOT use an app.  Instead log into your account via the company’s website and find your “monthly statement” or “monthly bill”.  Click the download button and save the file to your device.  You can then upload it to the registration system.
2. You can scan a printed document as a PDF and then upload it
   a. Places like Office Max will scan your documents if needed and email them to you.  You can then save the file to your device and upload it to the registration system.
   b. There are also some apps for smartphones and tablets that will scan a printed document using your phone or tablet’s camera.
3. You can use your smartphone or tablet to take a clear picture of the entire document page and then upload it

There are step-by-step directions in the snapcode email as well.

We ask that parents/guardians inform us right away and provide the required proof of residency documents for the district registration department to verify their residency.  Your documents will be reviewed and you will be contacted if additional information is needed.  

If you move prior to registration, please upload your new residency documents directly into the online registration system.  

If you move after you submitted registration or during the school year, please email all required documents in a single email to [email protected]. Please use the subject “Moved.”  

Be sure to check whether your new address also means your student is in a new school attendance area.   If so, your student will be moved to the new school.  If you prefer to request a permissive transfer, please find this topic below.

Since you are registering for the upcoming school year, you will need to wait to register until you have the proof of residency for your new home.  If the school year is already underway or will begin in less than 30 days, please contact the district registrar at [email protected].

No, you must be a full-time resident of Oak Park for your child(ren) to attend Oak Park public schools.

Yes.
Kindergarten is treated as a new enrollment.
 

No, only the custodial parent/guardian can register the child(ren) for school using the custodial parent/guardian's residency information.

Your username is your email address.  If you have changed your email address, you will still need to use the old email address as your username in order to log in.  Be aware that if you forget your password, the temporary password will be sent to the email address you used when you first created your account.  You can always create a new registration/InfoSnap account using your current email address.
