Student Registration

Welcome to the Fairport Central School District! We look forward to your participation and involvement in our schools and in the community. By choosing Fairport schools, you will be part of a District that is committed to high standards and continuous improvement. Commitment and quality are evident in the focus on students developing their potential. May your children have a wonderful and enriching school experience in Fairport!

New families to the Fairport Central School District will enroll their children in our schools through a centralized registration process. To help you start the registration process, there are several forms that you may print and fill out before you meet with District Registrar Karen Vogel  (the registration packet is available on this page, below as a PDF file).

After completing the forms, bring them with you when you come for your appointment with Karen Vogel at 10 Baumer Place, Fairport, NY 14450. If you have any questions as you fill out the forms, contact the Registrar’s office via phone at (585) 421-2009 or via email at karen.vogel@fairport.org.

Families also have the additional option of entering information about their student in the District census database before their appointment. 

In addition to providing school records, those registering new students need the following:

  • To furnish proof of residency (mortgage statement, utility bill or a signed lease)
  • A birth certificate for each child
  • Current immunization and health records

Students are assigned to a school based upon the location of the family residence. After all paperwork is processed, appointment will be made for class placements and student schedules. After the assignment has been made, the family has an opportunity to visit the school.

Families wishing to homeschool their children are required by New York State Education Department to adhere to the NYS Part 100.10 Regulations. Families are to follow these Commissioner’s Regulations for grades 1-12, and kindergarten subject areas are at the parent/guardian’s discretion. Families are required to submit a yearly plan after receiving acknowledgement of their Letter of Intent to homeschool. Families are also required to submit quarterly progress reports documenting the student’s progress over the quarter. If a child returns to the District after homeschooling, it is up to the principal’s discretion what, if any, credit will be granted for coursework completed in homeschooling. Students who are homeschooled do not receive a diploma. A Letter of Completion would be awarded if all NYS Part 100.10 requirements are met.
