Annual enrollment process for DSISD set to begin next week

Dripping Springs ISD’s annual enrollment verification process for all students begins Wednesday, July 28. According to state law, this process must be completed each year for all students – those who have been enrolled in DSISD previously and those who are new to our district and previously completed registration.

Parents will receive a reminder email with log-in information a few days before the enrollment verification window opens. Family Access logins are used to begin this process; those who don’t have a login or cannot remember their password should follow directions in the reminder email. Family information will carry over between siblings, but some acknowledgements must be made separately for each child.

For secondary students, annual enrollment verification is not the same as course selection, which students should have completed in the spring.

Please complete enrollment verification for each child in your family as soon as possible; this process should be completed before the first day of school (August 17) to allow the campus to confirm classroom assignments in a timely manner.

Parents who have problems with the online process should contact their child’s campus and ask for the Family Access contact/Student Records Specialist. Computers are available at campuses for those who do not have one available at home.

Enrollment verification forms include: confirmation of student data and contact information, parental consent form, health record information, acknowledgement of Student Code of Conduct/Student Handbook, student transportation information, and more. Some campuses require additional forms, such as the parking permit request at the high school.

One step in the process allows parents the opportunity to customize how they will receive notifications from the district (Step 3). This step will include a link directing parents to the Blackboard website, where they may indicate how they would like to receive district time-sensitive notifications; as a default, messages are sent using all available methods. Blackboard uses the same login as Family Access. Schools and the district office typically email routine messages and news.
