I already have older children attending CRSD. Do I still need to provide the registration information and proof of residency?
Yes. For every new student registered to attend at CRSD, a parent/ guardian must complete a registration and provide all required proofs and documents.

What is the deadline to register?
To guarantee a spot in your student’s sending school that correlates with your neighborhood you must have your registration in by June 1st.
CRSD is a public school with no registration deadline and will enroll students who reside in CRSD boundaries all year if they meet the registration requirements but if we do not have space in your sending school, we may have to place you in a sister school.

When is the first day of school (2024-2025)?
