Registration Informaton 2009-2010
By Pamela Hollich
Dear Parents,
Registration for students who will be attending school in Brookwood School District 167 will once again take place in August. The timeline for registration is outlined below. Registration forms are included in this packet along with a brief explanation of each form. Filling out these forms ahead of time and having the necessary documents with you during registration will speed up the process. Please keep in mind that it will be necessary for all parents/guardians to establish residency and complete new registration forms for all students for the 2009-2010 school year. Please read the instructions and forms carefully as some of our procedures have changed.
The book/materials fee for the 2009-2010 school year is $60.00 per student. A reduced fee of $50.00 per student will be allowed if full payment is received during the registration times on August 12 and 13. The discounted fee is offered because we are better prepared to process all necessary paperwork with added personnel during the registration dates prior to the start of school. To assist you in planning for registration please be aware that junior high gym suits cost $22.00 and the planner costs $5.00. Our hope is to encourage registration prior to the start of the school year so that the entire focus of the first week of school will be on students and learning.
Once again, Brookwood School District 167 will conduct centralized registration sessions in order to allow you to register all of your children at one site. Registration will be held at Brookwood Junior High School for the entire school district.
