Registration is Open7/10/2019 Dear parents of high school students,
As registration opened July 8, we wanted to make you aware that our high schools are open (TIME) Monday through Thursday. Summer is a particularly busy time for our high schools and to avoid potential wait times when bringing proof of residency, requesting records, etc., we encourage you to not wait until the last minute. Families new to our district, we also encourage you to come visit and start the enrollment process. As each high school can enroll upward of 150 new families over the summer, we hope to see you well before registration ends July 25. If you have any questions, please call your high school front office and they will be able to provide assistance. We look forward to seeing you soon. Sincerely, Olathe Public Schools Administration High School Summer Hours As registration began across the Olathe School District July 8, summer is one of the district’s busiest times of year. As students are to be registered between July 8 and 25, it is encouraged for parents and guardians to enroll early and not wait until the last minute, especially a high school family new to the district. “Particularly for new families, enrollment can be a busy time,” said Debbie Stewart registrar at Olathe East High School. “We usually enroll about 150 new families over the summer.” Whether guardians are picking up an enrollment packet, requesting records, meeting with a counselor or visiting your new school, any time before July 25 works best to avoid a wait. “Typically if families wait until July 25, you will have a wait to do something simple,” said Stewart. “You can always call ahead and avoid the crowd.” Olathe high schools are open (HOURS) Monday through Thursday. The main phone number for each high schools are: Olathe East High School – (913) 780-7120 Olathe North High School – (913) 780-7140 Olathe Northwest High School – (913) 780-7150 Olathe South High School – (913) 780-7160 Olathe West High School – (913) 780-7180 |
