Families that will be enrolling NEW student (or students who left and are returning) in the Bethalto School District will start the process online.

This does not include current PreK students, you will follow the directions for a returning student. 

This includes our new kindergarten families as well. If your KDG student has a sibling in the district and you already have your parent portal set up, when you receive your email with their access code you will add that child to your current parent portal account and complete their forms. Please see this link for instructions on how to add a student. 

ADDING A STUDENT TO YOUR PARENT PORTAL 

If your student has currently attended the Bethalto School District and you are re-enrolling in the district, please fill out the information below as well on the website. 

The 3 steps to enroll your child are provided below:

Step 1:   New Student Registration can be completed using an internet connected device. Begin by visiting the BCUSD#8 student enrollment website.  When arriving here, simply follow the directions to complete the pre-registration application. Please make sure you answer all questions. 

Step 2:  Gather the following documents needed for online enrollment. You will need to be able to upload/email/send the following documents to the building.
