Student Registration

How to Register a Student

York Suburban School District uses an online registration process that can be completed at home using an internet-connected device. Students who are transferring from another district during the school year may be registered at any time. Upcoming kindergarten students who meet age eligibility requirements can be registered as early as the January prior to the start of their kindergarten year. Finally, students who will be transferring over the summer can be registered beginning in June. Please refer to the tabs below for additional information.

Enrollment Process Overview

York Suburban School District uses an online, electronic registration process which will require a computer, internet, and the ability to scan documents. Documents with multiple pages will need to be uploaded as PDFs. The documents can be scanned using an application on a phone or tablet (such as CamScanner) or a traditional scanner connected to a computer. Printed versions of the registration forms are not available. If you do not have the appropriate technology, you can complete the application and scan your documents at the following locations:

Lee R. Glatfelter Library; 1031 Edgecomb Avenue, York, PA 17403; (717)771-4020

Frequently Asked Questions

What happens after I submit an application for a new or returning student?

After you submit an application, you will receive email updates as the status of the application changes. The student is not enrolled in York Suburban until your application is reviewed by the appropriate District personnel and approved. After it is approved, you will receive an email with more details about the next steps. If the application is not approved, you will receive an email about what needs to be changed in order for the it to be approved or an explanation as to why the student is not eligible to be enrolled in York Suburban.

If your application is approved over the summer, you will likely start to receive communication from the student’s school building closer to the start of the new school year. If you are transferring a student to York Suburban during the current school year, the student is typically able to start within 2-3 school days after the application is approved. The school building will contact you once an official start date has been determined.
