New Student Registration Process Streamlined
Dripping Springs ISD (DSISD) is streamlining the process to r egister new students, beginning in J une of 2018. Parents of ne w students will be able to enter a New Student Online Enrollment portal by going to the DSISD website: https://www.dsisdtx.us.
Parents will be able to fill out student information that previously was contained on multiple forms. This trans - tion is similar to the mo ve DSISD made many y ears ago when returning students’ annual enrollment verific - tion moved online.
After filling out the online information, the parents will still need to physically present required documents at the new student’s campus. Once the r equired documents are verified and cop - ied, the r egistration process can be completed.
Designated dates for the physical presentation of r equired documents for el - ementary and middle school students are Thursday une 14, and Tuesday June 31.
High school students should make an appoint - ment with the Counseling Offic by calling (512) 858-3109 or (512) 858-3129.
Documents that are needed for school registration are proof of residence and parent/guardian identification
Documents that can ser ve for proof of residence are:
- a current lease agreement and a current electric bill, or
- a settlement statement with signature page/warranty deed, and a curr ent electric bill or
