Need to register your child in a Fresno Unified school for the 2019-20 school year? There’s still time, and the district is making it a little easier for working parents.
Fresno Unified schools will be open for evening registration from 4 p.m. to 7 p.m. Aug. 6. Parents also can register their children at schools during normal business hours.
The first day of school for Fresno Unified students is Aug. 12.
To register a new student, parents or guardians should bring the child’s birth certificate, previous transcripts, immunization records, and proof of address.
“We hope that families take advantage of the convenient, after-work hours we offer through evening registration,” Superintendent Bob Nelson said in a news release Wednesday. “Getting children registered prior to the start of school helps eliminate some of the stress and anxiety that goes along with the first day of school.”
