Please complete enrollment by tomorrow.

Dear USD 417 Families,

Please enroll your students by Friday, May 8th, for the 2026-2027 school year. This is for all returning students and new students. You can complete enrollment online through PowerSchool. If you need help, call or visit one of the school buildings or the district office.

If your student(s) will not return, please let the school know.

New students should use the Pre-Registration Portal link to register.
New students must choose the correct school year in the pre-registration portal since both the 2025-2026 and 2026-2027 years are available.

Current USD 417 students should use the PowerSchool Parent Portal or the PowerSchool App instead of the pre-registration portal.

You can find the PowerSchool icon on our website at www.usd417.org or download the PowerSchool app on your mobile device to complete enrollment.

Thank you!
