New Student Registration / New Student Registration (original) (raw)

• Hempfield School District uses an online student registration program (linked below) which allows parents/guardians to input student information right from the comfort of their own home, office, public library, or any other web-hosted location. Please only register if your child is not currently enrolled at Hempfield School District.
  Please Note: The compulsory school age in Pennsylvania was recently changed and requires all students to begin school no later than age 6 and attend school until age 18 or until graduation.
  • A child is eligible for admission into kindergarten if they have attained the age of five (5) before the first day of September.
  • A child is eligible for admission into 1st grade if they have attained the age of six (6) before the first day of September regardless of prior educational programming (Board Policy 201).
    In order to register your child you must first have an email account. If you already have an email address, please complete the online new student registration. After you complete the registration, you can then create a parent portal account which will allow you to check your child’s grades, attendance, and see special events at the school. If you do not have an email address, or you need additional help navigating the process, please follow these PowerSchool Access instructions.
    Note: Please write down your account information and password, as it will be your key to your child’s information while they are here at Hempfield.
    Upon completion of an online enrollment, you will receive an email with further information and the next steps. The online registration system allows us to speed up the transmittal of your student’s data across our system to food service, transportation, nursing services, and your child’s school building to ensure a smooth start to your Hempfield experience.
    If you do not have access to the Internet, you can make an appointment to bring the required and recommended forms listed below to our office where you will enter the data into a computer kiosk located in the Student Services Office.
