        If unable to upload required documents, including proof of residency, to Skyward during the online enrollment process, please ensure you deliver these documents to your child’s campus during normal business hours by Thursday, August 3. This will ensure that your child receives a classroom assignment on Bring Your Supplies Night (elementary) or a schedule on Skyward or at schedule pickup (secondary).
