REGISTRATION

Welcome to Alexander City Schools' registration and enrollment page. At Alexander City Schools we strive to be a premier educational institution that cultivates a pathway of success for students to become graduates who are fully equipped to contribute as productive members of society. Alexander City Schools requires all students to complete online registration each school year through the registration platform PowerSchool. This platform allows us to securely collect, verify, and store student data in our student information system. 

Please read the "2nd Party Resident" disclaimer below prior to beginning the enrollment process.

We look forward to inspiring hope and creating pathways to success for your student(s) during the upcoming academic year. 

 Only parents/ guardians may register a student!

  

 Are you considered a 2nd party Resident?

BEFORE you begin the online enrollment process for Alexander City Schools you must confirm you are not considered a “2nd Party Resident”.  A "“2nd Party Resident” is a student seeking enrollment in Alexander City Schools, who lives with their parents or legal guardians, but resides in the home of another adult within the school district.

If this residency status DOES NOT relate to your situation you may continue to the online enrollment below.

 

If this residency status does apply to your situation you must follow the Affidavit Instructions and complete the Judges New Resident Assessment. 

Residency Affidavits will be resubmitted annually at least 2 weeks prior to the beginning of each school year since they are only valid for one year. 

 

If you are residing in the home or apartment of another adult you must complete all affidavit requirements before starting the registration process.
