Beginning July 13, 2026, all returning families must complete the required annual verification for each student.
βοΈ Required Annual Verification:
- Proof of Residency (POR)
- Returning Student Online Verification (RSOV)
This process allows us to:
- Verify residency
- Update emergency contacts
- Ensure all required forms are current
- Online through Skyward Family Access starting July 13, or
- Visit one of our Summer Support Labs for in-person assistance
You may attend any location that works best for your family.
π Summer Support Lab Dates:
- July 13β14: Kings Manor Elementary & Dogwood Elementary

π¨ Final Deadline:
Students who remain incomplete for POR, RSOV, or immunizations by August 5, 2026 at 5:00 PM will be unenrolled and must re-enroll as new students to return.
Completing these steps over the summer helps us start the year strong and allows our teachers to focus on what matters mostβlearning and growing our Wranglers.
