Registration for 2023-2024 will open on March 1, 2023. An annual registration must be completed for ALL students (returning and new). Parents can register students at www.norwalkschools.org by clicking under “Enrollment”.  Parents of students who are new to the district, click on the “New Families” page under “Enrollment”.  Parents should register all students that will be returning in 23-24 by logging into their Parent Portal account. Maintaining current and accurate student records is essential to student safety and service.

 

MOVING:  If you are moving and your student will be attending another school district this fall, please email enrollment@norwalkschools.org. This notification will help both Norwalk Schools and the new district of your student’s pending enrollment.  If you are moving within the Norwalk School District please make sure to update your new address within the online registration process.   

 

NOTICE FOR PRESCHOOL & KINDERGARTEN REGISTRATION:   Parents enrolling a preschool or kindergarten student(s) should click on the “Add New Student” button on the “Student” tab for each PK or K student to enroll.  Online registration does not recognize students as returning students until they have completed Kindergarten.
