Though it seems as if we’ve just settled into the relaxing rhythm of summer, the start of a new school year is fast upon us, ready or not.
Students in the Leggett and Onalaska ISDs return to school on Aug. 4 and Livingston and Corrigan-Camden ISDs will welcome students back on Aug. 5. Those in the Big Sandy and Goodrich ISDs have an extra week of summer break, with Big Sandy starting back on Aug. 12 and Goodrich on Aug. 13.
REGISTRATION
Livingston ISD
All Livingston ISD students, both new and returning, will be required to register through the online Parent Portal before the first day of school. Parents/Guardians will need to have an established Parent Portal account and an active email address linked to their account to complete the registration process. Parents/Guardians of students in grades 1-5 must complete the Campus Placement Form, which can be found on the district’s website at livingstonisd.com.
Required documentation for all grade levels include: a copy of the student’s certified birth certificate (hospital certificate will not be accepted); updated shot record; proof of residency (electric/light bill with name and 911 address or rental/lease agreement); driver’s license or state ID of the person enrolling the student (parent or guardian); student’s Social Security card; report card (if applicable); verification of household income – 3 recent pay stubs (Pre-K); foster or CPS documents (Pre-K if applicable); and military documentation (Pre-K if applicable).
Registration will require you to provide a current light bill as proof of residency. It may be uploaded directly into your Parent Portal at the time of registration. If you are unable to upload your current light bill to Parent Portal, you may also email it to your student’s campus registrar or drop it off at a drop-box at the front of your student’s campus. Contact information for each campus registrar, including their email, is listed below. If you choose to drop off your current light bill in a drop-box, please be sure to write your student’s first and last name, along with the name of the campus they will be attending, at the top of the page. If you have multiple students attending the same campus, please list each student’s first and last name.
