New Student Enrollment

New Student Enrollment

Welcome to Galt High School! We are looking forward to having you and your student join us as part of the Warrior family.

All enrollment is done electronically using our Student Data System, PowerSchool. This is an online tool that provides the district with all the necessary information to start a student's enrollment. This process requires the parent/legal guardian to create an account and input student and parent information along with the required documentation. All required documents may be uploaded during submission. While this tool can be accessed via a computer or phone, we strongly recommend using a computer. To streamline the submission process, we recommend compiling the relevant documents in advance. Additional documents, such as court custody agreements or authorizations, Individualized Education Plans (IEP), and 504s, can be submitted electronically.

Please follow the important steps below to enroll your student.

FIND YOUR SCHOOL

It's important to note the following guidelines:
• The high school placement of a student is determined by their primary home address.
• PO Boxes are NOT acceptable as proof of residency.
• All documentation provided for residency must be current, valid, and legible

FAQ’S (click on arrow) ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

*California Education Code (48204.1) requires that a school district must verify a student’s residency using reasonable evidence. The district uses residency information during the student enrollment process, to establish school of attendance, and when processing Caregiver and Residency Affidavits and Inter/Intradistrict Transfer Agreements. Parents/legal guardians must provide documents to the district as proof of residency within GJUHSD boundaries. Any documents provided to establish residency must include the name of the parent/legal guardian and current home address.

If the parent or guardian is unable to provide proof of residency in their name, a notarized affidavit is required. See application below.

If a students resides with a someone other than a parent, a notarized caregiver affidavit is required. See application below.

How do I get started?

Click on the appropriate registration link above.

If you’ve never completed an online Registration using this system, you should create an account. This allows you to securely save your work and come back at a later time if necessary.
If you already have an account, you can sign in and complete the form (you should use the same account to complete forms for multiple children).

Do I have to answer all the questions?

Questions marked “required” will need to be answered.

What if I make a mistake?

If you would like to make a change, click on the underlined field or click “Previous” below to return to a previous page.

I’ve completed the form, now what?

When you have finished entering your information, click “Submit.” This will send all of the information you’ve entered to the school. If you cannot click on this button, you will need to make sure that you have answered all required questions.

Documentation of current residency is required to complete the enrollment registration process. You may upload the proof of address through the online registration system, Fax your documentation to the high school, or hand deliver it to the school office.

What if I have more than one student in the district?

Do I need to do this for each child? Yes, because you’ll need to provide information that is specific for each child. We recommend that you submit one Registration and then start another – this will allow you to “snap over” shared family information, which will save you time.

I don’t know what a question is asking.

If you have questions about the online form or the Registration process, please contact your school's Registrar:
