Enrollment
Springfield Public Schools offers an option of completing the enrollment application for students new to the district online. Using the online enrollment application process, for seated classes, parents/guardians can provide their student's information electronically, and save time and paperwork.
Enrolling a Student: Easy as 1-2-3
Step 1: Gather Your Documents
- Student's proof of birth
- Student's immunization records
- Proofs of residency (utility bill, lease, or similar document)
- Previous school records (transcript, behavior, attendance, name and address of previous school)
- Copy of parent/guardian photo ID (proof of guardianship, if required)
- Health Inventory
- Student physical and Sport Medicine Services form, if applicable
Step 2: Find Your Home School
The school your child will attend is based on the attendance area in which you live and can be determined by using the school boundary map or by calling the records office at (417) 523-4747 or the transportation department at (417) 523-0500. Once the school has been identified, you can start the enrollment process by completing the online application.
Step 3: Finish Enrollment In-Person
Once you've completed the online application, take the email confirmation and the documents listed in Step 1 to your child's school to complete enrollment in-person.
Note: In addition to the forms above, there are multiple forms in the student handbook that will need to be provided to the school if applicable. Forms must be from the student handbook for the school year you are enrolling them in. The student handbook for the upcoming school year is typically updated July/August. Those forms included:
- Directory Information Opt Out
- Acceptable Technology Use Agreement
- Student Media Exclusion
- Blackboard Connect Notification System

Non-SPS students wanting to enroll in seated Explore classes can also complete the seated online application. Once completed, the student's immunization record and health inventory form should be emailed to immunizations@spsmail.org or faxed to 417-523-1695.
