The Near North District School Board (NNDSB) officially transitioned to a fully digital registration process on Tuesday.
Parents and guardians are now able to send digital copies of student identification avoiding the need for any in-person visits.
NNDSB said the digital system, initially just created for kindergarten students’ registration, will now be available for use by any parent or guardian who has children to register, regardless of age or grade.
Students transferring from out of the area or from other boards can register using this same process.
Once student eligibility at a particular school is confirmed, new registration forms can be accessed in one of three ways.
A fillable PDF or Word document can be downloaded, completed, and emailed to the appropriate secretary, or a printer-friendly Word document can be downloaded, printed off, filled out, and either scanned and emailed, or mailed to the appropriate secretary.
Secretary names and email addresses can be found on the Find Your School page of the board’s website.
And for those who prefer paper copies, the secretary of the school can mail out or prepare a registration package for pick up.
