***Please note: We will be prioritizing the processing of Returning Student Registration forms for students enrolling in Kindergarten. The processing of all other Returning Student Registrations will occur throughout the spring and summer.

Step 1: Gather your information

Parent(s)/Guardian(s) Information:

Name

Preferred Phone Numbers

South Burlington School District recognizes that students have diverse gender identities and is striving to use gender-inclusive language in its registration processes. In some places, due to state and federal reporting limitations, binary language, "male" and "female" are used. SBSD will continue to advocate for inclusionary options in mandated reporting and understand how binary reporting impacts students and families.

Step 2: Gather your documents

Did your student's legal name change? To update your student's record, please provide a copy of the court paper, new birth certificate, or new valid passport.

Did the address of the student's legal custodial guardian change? Please provide all Proof of Residency documents. The full list of these required documents can be found here.
