Preparations for the 2025–2026 school year are now underway, following the opening of the registration process for returning students. Registration begins on April 28, 2025, and is available online. Parents can fill out required forms and submit payments through the secure online portal, Revtrak. The online option remains available throughout the summer. An incentive is offered for early payment; a $10 discount on school fees applies if paid before July 1, 2025.
Despite the convenience of online registration, residency verification requires an in-person visit. A verification event is scheduled for August 7, 2025, from 7:00 am to 7:00 pm. To confirm residency, families must present documentation from specified categories. Further details on acceptable documents will be provided later. For those unable to attend the event, appointments with the relevant school official are necessary between August 7 and August 15. Completion of this requirement by August 15 is crucial as lack of verification will result in the student not receiving their class schedule.
The policy also extends to new students who can register anytime during the summer. New families can opt to participate in the August residency event if preferred.
For questions or assistance, parents are encouraged to contact their child's school or the District Registrar, Jackie Hazzard, at 815-929-4683. The district expresses appreciation to the families for their cooperation and looks forward to the upcoming school year.
