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.
Access Control:
Online Registration
❏ Enable or disable annual online registration.
| Allow Parent Access | This field enables and disables Online Registration, including the tools needed to set up forms. Select Yes if you will be using Online Registration, including during setup. Use Online Registration Date Range to control when Online Registration is available to parents. |
|---|---|
| Online Registration Date Range | To specify the beginning and ending dates for online registration: ❏ Click in the field, and a calendar opens. ❏ First click the start date, then click the end date. The calendar closes once you click the end date.

|
|---|---|
| What type of authentication would you like to use for new enrollment | Select the user validation to use for Student Enrollment: Email - Validate a user by email. With this validation process, an email message is sent to the user’s email address containing the registration code. The user must type the code, exactly as it appears in the message, in order to continue with the enrollment process. CAPTCHA - Validate a user by CAPTCHA, which is a tool that protects websites against bots by generating codes that humans can pass but computer programs cannot pass. When this option is enabled, the registration key is automatically generated once you correctly enter the CAPTCHA code. An email message is sent to the parent containing the registration key for his records. IMPORTANT: The CAPTCHA option should only be used during short-term enrollment events such as Kinder Roundup. |
