This page is only available to users who log on to ASCENDER ParentPortal with a district- or campus-level security administrator user name.

This page allows you to enter district-level settings for Student Enrollment and Online Registration, and view form data.

Student Enrollment Versus Online Registration:

  • Student Enrollment refers to the one-time process of enrolling a new student in the district. Only forms in the New Student Enrollment group, and static printable forms, are used for new student enrollment.
  • Online Registration refers to the annual maintenance of records for existing students (i.e., students already enrolled in the district), such as demographic data updates and form acknowledgement.
  • Student Data Updates refers to the ongoing maintenance of records for existing students, such as changes to contact information.
