The registration process for the 2022- ’23 school year will look the same as last year. The process consists of two steps.

RETURNING STUDENTS:

Step one is to register online through the Ascender Parent Portal. The link is provided here: https://portals07.ascendertx.com/ParentPortal/login?distid=234902. You must complete step one before proceeding to step two.

Step two of the process will require returning students to attend registration on Tuesday or Wednesday, August 2 ^nd – August 3 ^rd , from 9:00 am-1:00 pm and 2:00 pm - 6:00 pm in the Canton High School Commons area. Please note that the doors will lock at 12:45 pm to allow our staff and student workers an opportunity to break for lunch. At this time, you will provide proof of residency in the form of a current (no more than 30 days old) utility bill (water, electric, or gas), sign all remaining paperwork that was not a part of the online process, and clear any outstanding fines. If you are unable to attend registration with your student, you may pick up the required paperwork in front of the high school beginning July 5, 2022. These forms must be signed by both parent and student.

STUDENTS NEW TO THE DISTRICT:

Step one: create an account and register through the Ascender Parent Portal. The link is provided here: https://portals07.ascendertx.com/ParentPortal/login?distid=234902. You must complete step one before proceeding to step two.

Step two of the process will require students new to the district to register in person beginning Thursday, August 4 ^th in the counseling office. Please note that the office will be closed from 12:00 to 1:00 each day. At this time, you will provide proof of residency in the form of a current (no more than 30 days old) utility bill (water, electric, or gas), immunizations records, transcript or last report card, birth certificate, social security card, and sign all remaining paperwork that was not a part of the online process.

Student schedules will be released when all steps have been completed.

CHROMEBOOK DISTRIBUTION INFORMATION:

Canton ISD is pleased to offer our students mobile technology loan equipment (Chromebook). As a district we believe that every student should be provided a rigorous and engaging learning environment. By incorporating a 1-to-1 model for our students we will be able to provide a much richer learning environment. To ensure these benefits are realized, Canton ISD maintains a technology strategy that is fully integrated with district curriculum and professional needs. Parents will have the option to pay a $30 non-refundable insurance fee for using the device. This fee is required annually. The purpose of the fee is to help cover minor damages that may arise. (Fees will be charged for damages, lost or stolen devices). Before a Chromebook will be issued to a student, both the student and parent (guardian) must sign the device agreement form. This form should be completed during the registration process.

Students will be issued a Chromebook during the first week of school.

PARKING PERMITS/YEARBOOKS:

Those students wishing to park on campus during the school year will need to bring his/her driver’s license, $5.00 for a parking permit, and proof of liability insurance. If you purchased a 2022 yearbook you may pick it up during registration. If you did not and would like to purchase one, they will be available for $75 while supplies last. You may also purchase a 2023 yearbook at a pre-sale discounted price of $60.

Meet the Teacher is scheduled for Monday, August 15 ^th , from 6:30 pm - 8:00 pm, with a short orientation for parents of freshmen and students new to CHS being held in the Larry Davis Auditorium from 6:30 pm - 7:00 pm.

Questions concerning registration may be answered by calling the high school office at 903-567-6561. We hope you are having a great summer and look forward to seeing you in August.
