Returning Students Registration

  • Annual online summer registration for returning students begins at 9 a.m. on July 24, 2025. This includes kindergarten families who enrolled earlier this spring.
  • New students or students who were withdrawn during the school year must follow new student procedures.
  • Returning preschool students should watch their email for specific instructions regarding preschool registration. 

Important Information

  • Student schedules for high school and middle school students will be visible the evening of August 5th. Schedules will not be visible until a parent completes the registration process.
  • Elementary teachers will be announced the evening of Friday, August 8th.
  • Bus routes will be posted the afternoon of Monday, August 11. You must complete registration or address changes before August 7 to have transportation on the first day of school. Students who pre-register or make a change of address after that will have transportation starting August 19. A practice bus ride for kindergarteners will be held on August 12. More information is available at www.cps.k12.in.us/transportation.
  • Middle & high school supplies vary based on each course. Please come to school with the basics the first week (pencil/pen, paper, folders).
  • Most supplies for elementary students are paid for by the district. Students will also need a backpack (no wheels), pencil case, headphones or earbuds, and a reusable water bottle. A Chromebook case cover is strongly recommended. Chromebook dimensions are 12 x 9 inches.

Registration Instructions - Step by Step

Parents of returning students should follow the steps below to register your child for the upcoming school year. 

You will need to complete this process on a desktop computer or in a web browser like Safari or Chrome on a tablet (not the PowerSchool app). You will complete these steps for each student. 

1. Log in to your Powerschool Parent Account using the link cpcsc.powerschool.com

 

2. Select the Forms page on the left-hand side of your Home Screen. You might need to click on "Account Preferences" to find your forms.

3. Complete the forms as listed below for high school, middle school, and/or elementary.

4. Select each form by clicking on the name. Once each form is completed you will get a confirmation message when the forms have been successfully submitted. Once a form is submitted, the next form will immediately populate after the confirmation message has been closed out.

5. Once School Registration forms are completed, please make sure to select the Student Contacts form and ensure contact information is up to date with the correct custody and guardian information. If this information is not up to date, please contact your student’s school to update the information.

6. You can check that all forms have been completed from the Forms page. All forms should say they have been submitted with a Last Entry date. Please note you will have to change your student’s account and complete forms for each student in your Parent Powerschool Account.

Moving this summer or have residency updates?

If you are moving over the summer, you must update your address before August 7. This can be done by visiting your childs school and providing proof of address. If you submit a change of address after August 8, transportation will be available starting August 19.

If you received a letter earlier this summer that your family must provide updated proof of residency, you will not be able to register your student for the upcoming year until those documents have been provided to your child's school or Central Office.

We are here to help!

If you have questions or need access to a computer, please call or email your child's school.
