Do I need to Re-Enroll My Student(s)?

You will need to "re-enroll" your student(s) if your family meets the following criteria:

  • Your student(s) are already attending CAL Elementary

  • You are planning to return for 2023-2024 school year

  • Your student(s) are already set up in the PowerSchool Student Information System and you have a Parent Portal Login

    • If you have existing students enrolled, but are uncertain of your login credentials, please use the "Forgot Username or Password" options available or contact the District Registrar at schulerk@cal.k12.ia.us for assistance.

    • Registering through the Parent Portal will save you from re-entering much of your information that we already have on file.

Step 1 - Registration Process for Re-Enrollment

Re-Enroll Existing Students

  • Log in through your Parent Portal

  • Choose the child you wish to re-enroll.

  • Choose "Forms" on the left side of account.

  • Then choose "Enrollment Forms" at the top of the account.

  • Complete ALL forms.

    • Review all information in each form to make sure it is accurate and up-to-date.

    • It is very important for contact information to be accurate as this is the information used to send out school alerts such as weather announcements.

Add New Students to Your Parent Portal Account

  • Add new students to your Parent Portal account via the Pre-Registration Form

    • Complete all information and click "Apply to School", you will receive an email with confirmation of submission.
