Final Forms

zoom_out_map

SCSD has moved all enrollment packets to digital format through an app called Final Forms. Each student should have a viable parent email through PowerSchool (Parent Portal) in order for these forms to be pushed out. The digital format will allow parents the convenience of finalizing paperwork at home, linking multiple siblings together to reduce time and paperwork and auto-filling data for students in the upcoming years. Parents can create accounts once an email has been received or can follow the directions linked below to set set up your own account. If you have not received an email inviting you to create an account with Final Forms, please submit your name, email address, and students information on the google form linked below. Please contact the school if you need help with this process.
