How to Register
The 吃瓜大本营 School District is pleased to welcome new students to our schools.
To start the student registration process, parents need to fill out and submit an on-line registration application which can be found by clicking This Registration Link. Please attach/upload all required documentation when you fill out the on-line registration. In-person registration at the neighbourhood school in not required.
If the Student is a Refugee Claimant, or a Temporary Resident where the parent holds a temporary Study, Work, Diplomatic, or Minister/Religious Permit, parents can also complete the online registration providing proof of residency that verifies they meet the criteria for ordinarily resident.
