GENERAL REGISTRATION INFORMATION

Students residing within Bend-La Pine Schools’ boundary should register online or at the school in their assigned attendance area, which is based on a student’s home addresses or the address of their parents or legal guardians. To register, students or their parents are asked to complete registration forms and provide proof of age: parents’ or legal guardians’ names, addresses and places of employment; proof of immunization or exemption; and emergency contact information.

Each spring, currently enrolled students are automatically registered for the following school year, with the exception of transfer students who have been admitted under the joint approval process.

KINDERGARTEN REGISTRATION

Children attending kindergarten for the first time must be 5 years old on or before September 1st. Families can register for school in person or online. Bend-La Pine Schools offers free full-day kindergarten at all of its elementary schools.

TRANSFERS WITHIN THE DISTRICT

Occasionally, parents wish to transfer their students from a school in their attendance area to a school in another attendance area. Bend-La Pine Schools’ policy allows for transfers if the request is made in a timely manner with an Attendance Area Change Request form and there is space
at the school of choice. If the transfer is approved, parents are responsible for student’s transportation to and from school.
