This page allows district-level users to manage forms for new student enrollment, including static printable forms and customized forms for student online registration and demographic updates.
There are three types of forms that can be maintained via the Forms Management page: standard forms, static forms, and dynamic forms.
- Static forms cannot be updated online by parents; they can by viewed, printed, completed by hand, and returned to the campus. Static forms will vary by campus and district, and can be delivered in various formats, such as Microsoft Word, PDF, spreadsheet, etc. Calendars are an example of static documents. Any static forms you upload should be ADA compliant.
- Dynamic forms are presented online and can be completed and submitted online. These forms may include student online registration and demographic updates, as well as document attachment fields and uploads. Dynamic forms are built from a list of available fields.
- Standard forms are predefined district-level forms that are common throughout Texas. The forms cannot be edited, but you can determine whether or not they are available to parents by including (or excluding) them from groups. Most forms are submitted annually; the Home Language Survey only needs to be submitted once during the student's lifetime enrollment in the district.
