Seymour schools to streamline registration process

DETAILS: On Oct. 1, 2016 - Seymour Public Schools will begin a new four-step student centralized registration process. 
Centralized registration will now be available for all Seymour schools and will make it possible to enroll all children in a Seymour family at one time in one central location.   

Parents/Guardians can now follow these four steps for a simple enrollment process:

STEP 1: Obtain a Seymour School’s registration packet and school information packets at the Central Office building, located at Seymour Board of Education, 98 Bank St., Seymour. We ask that you please call ahead for handicap accommodations.  All district forms must be processed for official enrollment registration. Packets may also be mailed or emailed upon request.

STEP 2: Parents/Legal Guardians must return in person with all completed district forms and required documents to the Centralized Registration Center.  We ask that when possible call ahead to let registration staff  know the time you are coming so that staff can be available to process your information more efficiently.  A notary will be on site for parents/legal guardians who need documents notarized.

STEP 3: The Centralized Registration Center staff will review and file legal documentation of each child (birth certificates, etc). Verification of documents and records may take up to three (3) days before notification to parents regarding acceptance can be made.  

STEP 4: Parents/ Legal Guardians will receive via phone and email a communication of acceptance and completion of the registration process, and will contact the child’s school administrator for a welcome and a date to report to school. Parents/Legal Guardians will be provided school forms/school-based information at this initial school meeting.

Parents are asked to contact the Centralized Registration Center for any questions regarding student enrollment and registration at 203-888-4564, ext. 1900.
