Enroll Your Child

Welcome to the School District of Lancaster!

Our goal is to make your transition to our school community as easy as possible, even in these challenging times. We are now accepting enrollments by students new to the district for the 2020-2021 school year.  To enroll, click the link below.

Required documents, including Proof of Birth, Immunization Records and Proof of Address, can be submitted electronically.

During the enrollment process, you will login or create an account in ParentVUE, our student information system. There, you will answer several questions about your enrollment and schedule a day and time to visit the enrollment office and sign your child’s paperwork. You may also at that time provide any documents you were unable to upload. Please note, you are required to wear a face mask when attending the in-person enrollment appointment. We ask that only one person attend the appointment, whenever possible.

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.

Please contact the enrollment center at 717-291-6140 or enrollment-centralrecords@sdlancaster.org if you are unable to complete the online process or need additional assistance.
