New Family Enrollment

The Appleton Area School District requires enrollment for new students, 4K through grade 12, and annual registration for existing students, kindergarten through grade 12.

In the AASD, we aim to be a destination district for families seeking extensive and diverse school options, such as our 17 Appleton Community 4K sites located throughout our community, our welcoming neighborhood schools, and our 15 free, public charter schools each with a different emphasis such as the arts, manufacturing, the environment, STEM education, and college and career preparedness.

Whatever you're looking for, we have it here in Appleton!
When new families move into the District, we ask that you enroll your child(ren) as soon as possible. Prompt enrollment allows us to properly schedule buses, assign teachers, and provide any other services that might be necessary.

New Families must either enroll online or in person at Enrollment Services in the AASD Welcome Center. Enrollment is not available at our schools.
