Grades 1-12 Registration Information

  • Registration is now done online. 

    Use this page to guide you through the registration and enrollment process for grades 1-12. Please note that if you already attend the Lowell Public Schools, you do not need to register again for grades 1-12. This is only for students who are new to the district and did not attend the Lowell Public Schools this school year and plan to attend for the upcoming school year.  

    If you are unable to access our online form or need support with the registration process, please contact the Family Resource Center at 978-674-4321 or familyresourcecenter@lowell.k12.ma.us.

     

    Before You Register:

    • Identify three school choices. Lowell is split into two zones – Zone 1 and Zone 2. You may select a school in the zone where you live, or you may select one of the citywide schools. Please refer to the zone map and zone chart for more details. Please note that zones only apply for students in grades K-8 and students in grades 9-12 attend Lowell High School.

    • Consider the starting and ending times for each school, as well as your needs for before and after school care.

    • Gather documents needed for registration including:


      • If you are living with a Lowell resident, you will need to complete a third party affidavit. Please have a conversation with us if you are unable to produce sufficient documentation or if your housing is insecure. We abide by McKinney-Vento. Please use this link for more information on third party affidavits and McKinney-Vento.
      • Student's birth certificate
      • Student's fully updated immunization record, and a current physical exam (dated within one year of enrollment date)
      • Student's transcript (for high school students only)
      • IEP with pages signed if your child receives Special Education Services
      • Photo ID of parent/guardian registering the child
