A Time Saving Tool that Monticello School District will be able to offer for the 2013-2014 School Year
How will it help you as a parent?

With online registration you are in control of the best time and place for you to do your registration.

If you choose this option, registration will be August 7, 8, and 9. We will give exact times closer to this date.
NEW STUDENTS: All students new to the District should begin the registration process at the school they will attend. You will then be directed to the next steps in the registration process.
There will be more information coming on the steps to online registration. We always look forward to making your registration process a happy and successful experience.

Kindergarten and New 1st Grader Pre-Registration |
|
Families in the Monticello school district were to register children who will turn 5 years old on or before September 1, 2013 for Kindergarten at Lincoln School the week of March 11-March 15. Also, families with a student who will enter 1st grade in the fall who did not attend Monticello CUSD #25 schools for the 2012-2013 school year are asked to pre-register at Lincoln School as well. The pre-registration is extremely important so that the district has adequate time to make decisions about staffing and supplies. If you did not register during this time please conatact Lincoln School.
You will need your child’s certified birth certificate (from the courthouse with a raised seal) for registration.
