2020-2021 School Year ~ Registration Process 

All Students (new entrants - all grades, UPK, K) 

UPDATE: Due to the Governor’s Executive Order mandating schools across New York State remain closed through the end of the 2019-2020 school year, all registration appointments were handled remotely during this period of closure.
