To enroll a student in a St. Mary Parish school, a parent or legal guardian should:

• Check Attendance Zone Maps to select the appropriate school.
• Bring the following information to the school's office:
• Child's birth certificate.
• Current immunization records.
• Social Security card.
• Proof of residency (e.g., electricity, gas, and/or water bills; property tax bill; mortgage/lease statement or receipt; insurance statement; medical statement)
• Copy of student's transcript from former school (for transfer students only).

Additional information regarding verification of residence and/or custody is available from the front office of any district school. 

To enroll a new Pre-K or Kindergarten student, please refer to the PreK and Kindergarten Registration page or the Early Childhood Network (Pre-K) pages. 

• Beginning with the 2022-23 school year, Louisiana law now requires all students that turn five (5) years of age by Sept. 30th to attend mandatory kindergarten classes.
• The new requirement is expected to help improve academic performance by ensuring all children are attending school and learning basic skills at an early age.  

 Note:  Children displaced by emergency situations will be given extra consideration regarding required documentation.
