It's that time of the year! Starting January 5, 2026-2027 registration is open for the next school year. You can complete this in the parent portal. Only the primary household should fill out the OLR.

OR SEE THE QR CODE

Once you're in the parent portal, look at the left hand side and follow these easy instructions:

• Select "More"

• Then "Online Registration"- should be the fifth option

• Select " 26-27 next School year for existing student"

• START

Even if your situation may change ( possibility of moving etc.) please complete the registration for the 2026-2027 school year.

All of West Ottawa schools are in competition to see who can have the most online registrations completed to reserve your student(s) seat at Lakewood and transportation schedules for the next school year!

The office goal is to blow the other schools out of the water and show what Lakewood can accomplish in a short amount of time... who doesn't love a little competition!

Any questions please call the school office 616.786.1300.
