A message from the District Office regarding registration:
Dear SDNB families,
This summer, the SDNB will be implementing a new registration process for all students prior to the 2024-25 school year.
The SDNB will now require all families - new and returning - to complete the online registration process prior to the first day of school, Tuesday, Sept. 3. Requiring online registration to be completed prior to the start of the school year will ensure that all families will update relevant demographic and health details and receive, read and acknowledge important items such as the student handbook(s), technology use forms and more. We believe this new process will help us gather and maintain the most current information possible.
Online registration through Infinite Campus for the 2024-25 school year is open NOW and continues through the beginning of the school year. We encourage families to register early in the process as it may help us make plans related to class sizes and staffing. Click HERE for easy-to-use directions. Over the summer, we will send regular reminders to families to complete the registration process until they do so.
Thank you for your cooperation while we implement this new process.
School District of New Berlin
