Families with students who will be starting kindergarten or new to Community Consolidated School District 89 in the 2022-23 school year can begin the pre-registration process on 8:30 a.m. Wednesday, February 9. Registration for returning students will open April 6.
 
How to pre-register:
  1. After 8:30 a.m. February 9, visit www.ccsd89.org/register. Use the light blue button for “2022-23 new student registration”
  2. Create an account by choosing a username and password through PowerSchool Enrollment.
  3. Complete the form and hit “submit”.
  4. Once pre-registration is submitted, families will need to prove residency by submitting proof of residency online or submitting documents at either their student’s school or the district office (22w600 Butterfield Road, Glen Ellyn).
 
Residency verification for kindergarten and new students
Once you have completed the pre-registration through PowerSchool, you must next verify your child’s age and that you live in the district’s boundaries. Pre-registration is not complete until you have submitted an original birth certificate and the proof of residency documents.
 
When the pre-registration is complete, families will receive a link that will allow them to submit proof-of-residency documents electronically.
