Enrollment Q&A

If my child attends a feeder school, is my child automatically enrolled at Taft?

No, all elementary feeder schools are not automatically enrolled at Taft.  You need to login to your Parent Portal account to verify your information and confirm which school your child will be attending.   If your student is attending your elementary school on an Inter-district Permit, they will need to reapply for the secondary level. They will need to complete the application with their residence school district.

When do I register my child at Taft?/When does registration begin?
