How To Enroll

Enrollment

Welcome to the Boise School District!

We’re excited to partner with you in your child’s educational journey. Whether you are new to our community or enrolling a returning student, this page will guide you through each step of the enrollment process. Here you’ll find important information about attendance areas, required documents, key dates, and helpful contacts to ensure a smooth and successful start for your family.

  • Students may be enrolled by a parent or legal guardian who resides within the boundaries of the Boise School District. 

  • Verification Requirements
    When registering your child for the first time in a Boise public school, you must provide: 

    ✔ Proof of age (birth certificate or other official document)

    ✔ Proof of identity (parent/guardian identification)

    ✔ Proof of residency (utility bill, lease, or mortgage statement)

    ✔ Immunization records (unless exempt)

    🔹 Students who previously attended school: Bring past school records, if available.

    🔹 Students receiving special education services: Bring a copy of their Individualized Education Program (IEP).
