All previous steps of the registration process must be completed before the start of the school year. Students from families who, when required, do not provide proof of residency, will not be able to attend classes in a District 15 until the family's residency is verified.
All returning students MUST be registered by July 1, 2024, or they will be disenrolled from CCSD15. Families who have not completed their registration requirements will not receive a classroom assignment and will not be assigned to a bus route. Families who do not complete registration by July 1, 2024 should contact their school to re-enroll their children.
For instructions or more information, please visit the registration page on our website.

Buses enter through the driveway at the rear of the school. Students enter through the back doors (Doors 5 and 15) and are escorted to class∙
Cars are NOT allowed in the bus zone in the morning.
Drivers and Walkers (The Jane Addams Front)
Drivers traveling by car should only use the car lane and exit only on the passenger side of the vehicle.
Cars must move all the way forward to keep the line moving quickly. Look out for staff members who will wave you forward.
Students may arrive for morning supervision 15 minutes before the first bell rings. We hope to see your student at 8:05 if you would like to begin morning drop-off at this time.
NO cars should enter the staff parking lot to let children out. It is not safe for students to cross the exit lane. The JA parking lot is CLOSED for student drop-off until 8:00 a.m. m.
Pedestrians should always stay on sidewalks.
Lunch and breakfast at Jane Addams
As in previous years, Jane Addams students receive breakfast and lunch at no cost. Students may bring items from home. If they want milk with lunch, they only need to select a fresh fruit option to accompany the meal.
We are fortunate to provide meals at no cost to our students.
