Meet with the Office of Registration and Enrollment in a Virtual Appointment
Prior to the date of your appointment, the Office of Registration and Enrollment will email you the login credentials to your virtual meeting. If you or other parents/guardians require the support of additional guests (e.g. translators, step-parents, relatives, family advocates, social workers, etc.), please notify us ahead of time. A member of the Office of Registration and Enrollment team will begin the registration appointment once all participants have joined.
All registration meetings will be held through Zoom, with a telephone conference call as an alternative option. During the virtual appointment, the Office of Registration and Enrollment will review your application, verify the required documents, and discuss the next steps for your student’s enrollment. While we only require one parent/guardian to be present, all members of your family are welcome to attend the meeting with our staff.
Your student will not be registered in Brookline until you have met with a member of our team.
English Language Education (ELE)
The Office of Registration and Enrollment will help all families review their Home Language Survey responses during their registration appointment. Massachusetts Department of Elementary and Secondary Education (DESE) regulations require that all schools determine the language(s) spoken in each student’s home to identify their specific language needs.
If the answer to any question on the Home Language Survey is a language other than English, the Public Schools of Brookline is required to do further screening with your student. The Office of Registration & Enrollment will coordinate with the PSB English Language Education (ELE) department to schedule a separate appointment for your student should they require this additional screening. You will be notified of this meeting by email.
Appointments for an English Language Proficiency Screening will be available beginning in Spring 2023.
Immunization Records
Student Health Services staff will assist families to determine if students meet all immunization requirements.
Your child will not be allowed to participate in school meetings until all immunization requirements are met.
Immunizations must be approved by our Student Health Services staff prior to school attendance.
