STUDENT SUPPLY LISTS |
All registration material must now be returned to your student's school. Registration packets are no longer being processed at the Administration Center. If you have questions regarding registration, please call your student's school.
____________________
The Bettendorf Community School District instituted a district-wide, household, mail-in registration for all returning students for the upcoming 2011-2012 school year.
A registration packet containing new user-friendly forms were mailed to all student households the first week in July.
Each packet contains: a fee/payment sheet; transportation request with lists of the bus stops and routes; a Student Census/Health form; food service forms including the free & reduced application and BCSD Food Service account procedures; and a parent information pamphlet.
Return registration materials by mail in a pre-addressed return envelope (postage not included) provided in the packet OR drop the packet off in person at the BCSD Administration Center, 800 23rd St. Mail-in registration will replace the previous walk-in registration days held at the individual school buildings.
New families will continue to enroll at their home school.
